Understand Your Risks

Women in America have a 1 in 8 chance of developing breast cancer during their lifetime. It is crucial to evaluate your personal risk profile to determine if your risk is higher than that average. An increased risk of breast cancer commonly involves one or more of the following factors:

• Strong family history of breast or ovarian cancer
• Personal or family history of certain genetic mutations (BRCA 1, BRCA 2, CHEK2, PTEN, etc.)
• Personal history of high-risk breast biopsies (ex: atypical ductal hyperplasia, atypical lobular hyperplasia, lobular carcinoma in situ)
• Personal history of chest radiation between the ages of 10-30
