Navigating Breast Health: Breast Cancer Protection to Detection

Navigating breast health involves a combination of prevention, such as maintaining a healthy lifestyle and early detection, especially for those at higher risk. The risk of developing breast cancer significantly increases with age, with a 1 in 29 risk for the 60-70 age group and a 1 in 26 risk for those over 70. Men are at a lower risk, but most men aren't diagnosed until their 70's. Learn more about this disease from staff at the UW Health Breast Center.
