Breast Cancer - Its Gestation Period - Signs to Watch Watch Out For and What to Do

BREAST CANCER
Break cancer is a disease that is commonly found in women. No woman ever prays for it, because it could lead to death. Yet every woman stands the risk of contracting it.

GESTATION PERIOD
The gestational period of breast cancer can be divided into four stages; the fourth stage constitutes the most horrible because it is the stage at which the disease spreads to other parts of the body. It is hardly noticed at the first stage; but it becomes visible as it progresses. The fourth stage is the last stage, even if the breast is removed at that stage, it does not make any difference, as it must have spread to other parts of the body. Including the blood and the lymph.

SIGNS TO WATCH OUT FOR
• Change in outline, shape or size of the breast
• Puckering or dimpling of the skin
• Lump or thickening in the breast or armpit
• Flaking skin or discharge from the nipple
• Unusual pain or discomfort in the breast

WHAT TO DO
Even though, it is believed that there is nothing any woman can do to prevent breast cancer, the important thing is to take necessary precaution especially undergoing medical examination from time to time; and checking the breasts for any sign especially if there is a lump somewhere. Lumps can only become visible at the second or third stage of the cancer. But if detected, necessary corrective surgeries can be carried out. If it goes beyond this and spreads to other parts of the body, especially the lymph is nothing anyone can do again.
