-breast cancer is an incontrolled growth of breast cells -over time, mutations can “turn on” certain genes and “turn off” others in a cell. That changed cell gains the ability to keep dividing without control or order, producing more cells just like it and forming a tumor.


 * (ALREADY IN OWN WORDS)**

CAUSES/RISKS (what factors may lead to breast cancer) -alcohol use -having a high-fat diet -being Caucasian -being over the age of 50 -having family member(s) with breast cancer -getting an early menstruation (before the age of 12) -giving birth after the ages 30 -never had a child

BASICALLY... -breast cancer can be from normal genetic process -there are lots of things that can lead to breast cancer

SCIENTIFICALLY.. -series of mutations take place within genetic material of a breast cell, then this mutation duplicates and spreads -mutations can result from inherited flaws, meaning it was passed down from your family history, our environmental influences, or by error, by chance || Find out the causes and symptoms of breast cancer so you know how you can tell... -or HOW/WHY DO I GET IT? -many factors can lead to breast cancer such as... -picture of mutation in cell -picture of overweight women's body: [] -picture of pink sign (for breast cancer): http://www.onlinecancerguide.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/07/breast-cancer-awareness1.jpg ||

Treatment given after the surgery, to increase the chances of a cure, is called adjuvant therapy. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';">-Radiation therapy is a cancer treatment that uses high-energy x-rays or other types of radiation to kill cancer cells or keep them from growing -Chemotherapy is a cancer treatment that uses drugs to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. - Hormone therapy is a cancer treatment that removes hormones or blocks their action and stops cancer cells from growing. ||  ||
