Women’s breasts— the most interesting part of a female’s body— are extra at risk than ever: according to stats, bust cancer is one of the most constant deadly tumor in ladies in Russia.
The diagnosis, sounding like a sentence, is not a reason to conceal your head in the sand and be terrified, yet an indication that a woman today is progressively forgiven for negligence to her own health.
The correspondent of SE chatted with the head of the lab of molecular mechanisms of carcinogenesis of the Institute of Molecular Biology as well as Biophysics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, Doctor of Biological Sciences, Professor Lyudmila Gulyaeva, concerning what this condition is and just how each people need to behave in order to protect themselves from it.
What creates cancer cells?
Today there is no unified concept on this matter. There are a number of factors for this. First of all, these are ecological factors— chemical and also physical impacts, direct exposure, smoking significantly enhance the dangers.
Then you can identify internal aspects: endocrine as well as psycho-emotional. Bust cancer cells is associated with an extreme quantity of estrogen in the body of a woman, so the very early initial menstrual cycle as well as late menopause (that is, the scenario when estrogens begin to proactively influence the women body at a very early age as well as lasts a long time) are additionally connected with the danger of this cancer. In industrially developed countries, commonly a higher portion of breast cancer as well as endometrium, which is associated with the connection of psychogenic variables, tension. Endocrine conditions as well as hormonal disturbances, cycle conditions in ladies, along with a large number of abortions, likewise identify it as a threat team.
The 3rd is genetics. This relationship is common for many conditions, however it remains in oncology that this variable accounts for about 10-20 percent, which is fairly a great deal … And naturally, the threat of bust cancer increases with age. The maximum of its instances drops on 55-60 years, i.е. postmenopause.
A certain percent of cancer cells (about 10%) is located in youths. If doctors identify it at an early age, then there is a high chance that this is genetic cancer, the latter in most cases— gotten.
Does this mean that at a young age, if there are no special problems, you do not have to fret?
In any case, a female, especially after the age of thirty, needs to examine the mammary gland annually. If there are seals and mastopathy— a lot more so. A gynecologist is constantly obliged to analyze the mammary gland, and if there are marginal uncertainties, refer for an extra evaluation— ultrasound or mammogram. Ultrasound is well suited for young women, after 35 they generally hold a mammogram. As a whole, today every female can make a hereditary analysis, whether she comes under a threat group.
What is this research? To day, it has actually been proven that there is a specific percentage of females that have an extremely high threat— due to a mutation in the BRCA-genes (from Breast Cancer expression) that are necessary for ovarian cancer cells as well as bust cancer cells. With the initiatives of our institute, we first opened up a laboratory where we make a hereditary evaluation of the tendency to the incident of such cancers cells.
Women who have such mutations go to risk of developing ovarian or bust cancer with a possibility of 80-90 percent. This evaluation does the entire world, in some nations it is included in obligatory insurance. In the West, with a positive result for a mutation in the BRCA genetics, a female is suggested a prophylactic operation— removal of the bust as well as ovaries, even if they are healthy and balanced. There, this treatment has actually ended up being a regular method, we just need to enjoy these females extremely meticulously.
The truth is that breast cancer is a very perilous lump. Also if it is identified in time, treated and also run, after a few years it can again manifest itself in the form of metastases.
As a result, the reality that the hereditary screening technique has pertained to our city is an extremely important action. This totally transforms the strategy of a woman’s habits with a favorable result: she ends up being far more disciplined as well as purely complies with the suggestions of physicians.
Can specific breast soul-searchings aid in early medical diagnosis as well as is it real that breast implant make study difficult?
Purely talking, hereditary— aggressive— kinds of cancer cells develop really promptly. As well as when a female sees a tumor, it will be too late, since the process of hostile metastasis to other organs can begin. Self-examinations make good sense for determining primary seals, hyperplasia, benign adjustments in the breast that do not split so frantically and are currently fairly successfully dealt with. For that reason, I remember, it is important to have a regular annual evaluation, with a tendency— even more constant. What swings implants, with them all is not as significant as they occasionally state. And they themselves are used far not just for females’s whims, but also for addressing severe issues: as an example, to restore the type after removal of the breast.
And also hormonal birth controls? Just how do they affect the dangers?
On this event today is exceptionally debatable details. It is just proved that using hormonal birth controls for breast cancer cells is not as important when it comes to the threat of endometrial cancer. For bust cancer cells, these information have actually not been confirmed to date.
Is it true that cancer is dealt with in the onset?
Cancer cells is a collective idea, which includes various tumors. All cancers cells are various, each developing in its own means as well as treated depending on various kinds of different medications. Certain kinds are very aggressive and also create rapidly. Several of them are actually efficiently dealt with, if they are spotted in the early phases. Today, oncologists successfully cope with precancerous conditions, at the stage of benign lumps. The important point is not to miss the moment.
Exactly how to safeguard yourself from a horrible medical diagnosis in the future?
Lead a healthy way of living. One of the most banal suggestions, which are still generally undervalued: proper nutrition with great deals of veggies, no negative routines, especially cigarette smoking, less stress. For the prevention of breast cancer is extremely essential and also you require to breast-feed. As much back as the 18th century, physicians observed that nuns are more probable than normal females to have bust cancer cells, which can be triggered by the lack of shipment and feeding of children.
A lady must understand her feature, give birth to numerous kids and also fully elevate them— then the threat of cancer will certainly decrease.
A woman should be a female. This consists of, certainly, a full-fledged sex life. I describe an extremely severe recommendation of doctors— at the very least 2 times a week.
