Breast Cancer Risk Factors That Can't Be Changed But Can Be Improved

Research has shown that breast cancer risk is caused by a combination of factors, one of which is irreversible risk factors.

Having a risk factor does not mean you will get the disease, and not all risk factors have the same effect.

Most women have some risk factors, but most women do not get breast cancer.

Some of the risk factors for breast cancer that cannot be changed according to the American Cancer Society are as follows:

1. Being born female
Men can also get breast cancer, but breast cancer is more common in women.

2. Having a family history of breast cancer
Some women with breast cancer do not have a family history of the disease. however, women who have a close family relationship with breast cancer have a higher risk:
• Having a first-degree relative (mother, sister, or daughter) with breast cancer almost doubles a woman's risk. having 2 first-degree family members increases the risk by about 3x
• Women who have a father in the family who has breast cancer are at increased risk of developing breast cancer
3. Genetic mutation
About 5% to 10% of breast cancer cases are thought to be hereditary, meaning the cancer is a direct result of gene changes (mutations) passed down from parents.


The most common cause of breast cancer is inherited mutations in the BRCA 1 and BRCA 2 genes.

In normal cells these genes will help make proteins that repair damaged DNA but if there is a genetic mutation of these genes it can cause cell changes to become abnormal so that it can cause breast cancer.

The last point that causes the root cause of breast cancer makes the common treatment service that we know is chemotherapy which aims to cut off abnormal cells in the hope that there will be no metastases, but this chemotherapy cannot distinguish which cells are normal and which cells are abnormal so that it burns all cells in the body, then is this treatment the most effective treatment?

With the development of technology and knowledge that is increasingly sophisticated superior services at CMI Hospital are able to break genetic mutations and improve DNA structure with drug therapy that is adjusted to the patient's condition making this exclusive treatment has improvements without having to damage normal cells.

If your CMI friend has signs of symptoms of Breast Cancer, but is still confused about where to check and treat? superior services at CMI Hospital are here for breast cancer treatment without surgery and chemotherapy.
