If you happen to know, cancer affects people of all ages. Cancer is the abnormal growth of uncontrolled cells. These abnormalities may be due to the effects of carcinogens, such as tobacco smoke, radiation, chemicals, or infectious agents. Other cancer-promoting genetic abnormalities may randomly occur through errors in DNA replication, or are inherited, and thus present in all cells from birth. The heritability of cancers is usually affected by complex interactions between carcinogens and the host's genome.
Breast cancer is the 2nd caused of death of women. If women are aware of themselves, see doctors regularly, eats healthy food, has a healthy lifestyle, chances of having breast cancer is less.
Ovarian cancer is starts in the ovaries. Unfortunately, the cause is unknown.The risk for developing ovarian cancer appears to be affected by several factors. The more children a woman has and the earlier in life she gives birth, the lower her risk for ovarian cancer. Certain genes (BRCA1 and BRCA2) are responsible for a small number of ovarian cancer cases. Women with a personal history of breast cancer or a family history of breast or ovarian cancer have an increased risk for ovarian cancer.
