Worried about Breast Cancer?

6 Warning Signs

 

Do you know the signs and symptoms that might indicate breast cancer? While personal and family histories of breast cancer and lifestyle habits (including diet, exercise and how you handle stress) can all affect breast-cancer risk, learning to recognize the signs of breast cancer may save your life; early diagnosis is key to treatment and recovery.

 

Performing a monthly self-examination is still recommended by many health professionals, as is having a yearly exam performed by your doctor. In addition, the National Cancer Institute suggests keeping an eye out for the following signs:

 

1.                A lump or thickening in or near the breast or in the underarm area

2.                A change in the size or shape of the breast

3.                Nipple discharge or tenderness

4.                An inverted nipple

5.                Ridges or pitting on the breast (resembling an orange peel)

6.                A change in the look or feel of the breast, areola or nipple (such as temperature, swelling, redness or a scaly feel)

 

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, see your doctor for a diagnosis and possible treatment.    

 

If you are over 40, talk to your doctor about mammograms.

 

 

 6 Preventive Tips

 

According to the American Cancer Society, every three minutes, on average, another woman learns she has breast cancer. The good news is that there are several strategies that can help reduce risk. Try incorporating the following lifestyle changes into your daily routine:

 

1.                Get active. Regular physical activity (at least 30 minutes on most days) has been shown to be protective against breast cancer.

2.                Maintain your health care. Early detection is key: in addition to monthly Breast-Self examinations, women between ages 20 and 39 should have a clinical breast exam performed by a health care professional at least every three years; women 40 years of age or older should have annual breast exams and talk with their doctor about mammograms.

3.                Supplement wisely. Folic acid, vitamin D and antioxidants all may help decrease risk.

4.                Reduce exposure to xeno-estrogens. These chemicals with estrogen-like activity are found in common pesticides and industrial pollutants and as hormone residues in meat, poultry and dairy products.

5.                Avoid exposure to radiation. Limiting the number of chest x-rays you receive, especially at a young age, may decrease the risk of breast cancer.

6.                Talk with your doctor. If you have close relatives with breast cancer, your personal risk is increased. Let your doctor know your family history, and discuss other ways you can help to prevent breast cancer.

A THANKFUL HEART

God is drawn to a thankful heart. A key component in receiving from God is thanksgiving. When God blesses you, thank Him for it. Don’t just take things for granted! Be thankful for every good thing and every blessing you have. Count your blessings and give thanks to God.

Psalm 100

¹ Make a joyful shout to the LORD, all you lands!
² Serve the LORD with gladness;
         Come before His presence with singing.
⁴ Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,
         And into His courts with praise.
         Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.
⁵ For the LORD is good;
         His mercy is everlasting,
         And His truth endures to all generations.
