What is Breast Cancer?
The most common cancer among women worldwide, often detectable early through screening.
Breast cancer develops when abnormal cells in the breast multiply uncontrollably. It typically begins in ducts or lobules. Early detection through mammograms and clinical exams improves survival.
Epidemiology & Key Stats
Global Incidence: 2.3M new cases annually worldwide
India Incidence: 1 in 28 Indian women likely to develop breast cancer
Prevalence: 1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer in lifetime
Avg Diagnosis Age: 45–55 years in India (younger than global)
Overall Survival: 90% (early diagnosis)
Survival ranges reflect population data; individual prognosis depends on stage, biology, and access to multidisciplinary care.
Clinical Overview
Management integrates stage, biology (ER/PR, HER2, Ki‑67, genomic assays) and patient factors (age, fertility concerns, comorbidities). Multidisciplinary teams coordinate surgery, systemic therapy, radiation, genetic counseling, rehabilitation, and survivorship planning.
Pathogenesis
Progression typically follows a continuum: atypical hyperplasia → in situ (DCIS) → invasive carcinoma → regional nodal spread → distant metastasis. Not all in situ lesions progress; risk-stratified intervention prevents overtreatment.
Early Detection
Average-risk women benefit from routine mammograms; higher-risk individuals (e.g. BRCA mutation carriers, strong family history) may start earlier and add MRI. Self-awareness of new lumps, asymmetry, skin/nipple changes speeds presentation.
Management Focus
Goals: complete local control, minimize recurrence risk, tailor systemic therapy (endocrine, chemo, targeted, immunotherapy) to molecular subtype while minimizing toxicity. Breast-conserving surgery plus radiation achieves survival comparable to mastectomy in suitable candidates.
Decision Drivers
Tumor size vs breast volume (surgical choice)Nodal involvement (adjuvant systemic & radiation)Receptor status (endocrine / HER2-targeted / immunotherapy)Genomic assay scores (chemo benefit estimation)Patient preference & reconstruction options
Survivorship
Long-term follow-up monitors lymphedema, cardiac function (HER2 agents), bone health (endocrine therapy), cognitive change (chemo), and psychosocial wellbeing. Lifestyle optimization (exercise, weight management, moderated alcohol) reduces recurrence risk.
Individualized care aligns tumor biology, stage, and patient goals to optimize outcomes.

Breast Cancer Frequently Asked Questions
Clear, patient‑friendly answers to common breast cancer queries. All FAQs are visible (no accordion) for easy scanning and search optimization.
Why does breast cancer happen?
Breast cancer starts when certain breast cells begin to grow and multiply in an abnormal way. This can happen due to age, family history, hormonal changes, lifestyle habits, or sometimes without any clear cause. Regular check-ups help catch these changes early.
What symptoms can appear on the breast in breast cancer?
You may notice a new lump, swelling, or thickening in the breast or armpit. Other signs include changes in shape, nipple discharge, skin dimpling, or redness on the breast. Even small changes should be shown to a doctor.
Does breast cancer cause pain?
In the early stages, breast cancer usually does not cause pain. Some people may feel soreness or discomfort as the cancer grows or irritates surrounding tissues. Persistent or unusual pain should be checked to rule out any problem.
How is breast cancer treated?
Doctors treat breast cancer using a combination of methods such as surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, hormone therapy, or newer targeted medicines. The exact treatment plan depends on the stage and type of cancer. The earlier it is detected, the simpler and more effective the treatment becomes.
How many stages are there in breast cancer?
Breast cancer is classified into five stages from Stage 0 to Stage 4. Stage 0 is the earliest form, while Stage 4 means it has spread to other parts of the body. Knowing the stage helps doctors choose the best treatment approach.
Can breast cancer be fatal?
Yes, if left untreated or detected very late, breast cancer can become life-threatening. But with modern treatments, most cases—especially those caught early—can be controlled or completely cured. Early diagnosis saves lives.
Does breast cancer always lead to death?
No, most breast cancer patients survive, especially when the disease is found early. Many people go on to live long, healthy lives after treatment. Only advanced or untreated cancer significantly increases the risk of death.
