Breast cancer is the
cancer of breast tissue. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women. Breast cancer types include lobular and ductal. When cancer forms in the lobules that produce milk, it is termed as lobular cancer and formation of cancer in the ducts that carry milk is ductal cancer. Common signs of breast cancer include lumps in the breast or armpits, change in size and shape of breasts, newly- inverted nipple, puckering of the skin, discharge from either of the nipples and redness or scaly appearance of the skin. Breast cancer treatments depend on breast cancer types and stage of the disease. The stages of cancer depend on the size of the tumour and the degree of spread to local organs. Treatments include surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy or hormone therapy. Advancement in screening and treatment facilities have improved the survival rates since the 1980s.
