In this article, Dr. Rajiv Kumar, senior consultant at RGCIRC emphasized on witnessing a surge in breast cancer cases among young women, with some patients as young as 18. Contributing factors include lifestyle changes like urbanization, stress, sedentary routines, and environmental exposure to hormones and pollutants. Unlike in Western countries, many Indian women seek medical help only when the disease advances, often due to embarrassment, financial challenges, or limited healthcare access. Dr. Kumar stresses the need for regular screenings, especially for women over 40, along with lifestyle modifications like exercise and stress management to reduce risks. Early detection and timely intervention remain crucial for improving outcomes.
As a society, RGCIRC is looking forward to get support from generous people
