CITY OF SAN FERNANDO --- In line with the observance of Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October, the Department of Health in Central Luzon has strengthened its advocacy and prevention of breast cancer and its early detection.The DOH Center for Health Development said that breast cancer is a disease in which breast cells grow abnormally and out of control, potentially spreading to areas outside the breast through blood vessels and lymph vessels.
The DOH CLCHD noted that although breast cancer can affect both women and women, it is more prevalent in females with approximately three out of 100 women at risk of developing compared to about one in 1,000 males.To lower the risk of breast cancer, individuals are advised to avoid smoking, limit alcohol consumption, manage their weight, control hormone therapy, engage in physical activity, consume more fruits and vegetables, and breast-feed.
