Breast Cancer Treatment

In Delhi

Breast cancer happens when abnormal cells start growing in your breast and form a lump. It usually begins in the milk ducts or glands and can spread to nearby tissues if not treated early. This condition can affect both men and women, but it is much more common in women. Some breast cancers grow quickly, while others can spread faster. In some cases, early signs are not very noticeable. That is the only reason regular screening and early diagnosis are important: to detect the condition in time.

Symptoms
You might notice a lump in the breast or underarm, changes in breast shape, or swelling. Skin might look red or dimpled. Some people even experience nipple discharge or discomfort. Symptoms might be mild or easy to miss in early stages.

Causes
Breast cancer develops when there are changes in the DNA of the breast cells, causing them to grow out of control. The exact cause is not known. But factors like age, family history, and hormonal changes can increase the risk.

Diagnosis
Doctors usually begin with a breast exam and a discussion of symptoms. Tests like mammograms and ultrasounds help detect abnormal areas. A biopsy is done to confirm the condition. Further tests help decide the type and stage of cancer.

Treatment
The treatment might include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or hormone therapy. The treatments aim to remove cancer and stop it from spreading. The plan depends on the type and stage of cancer. MOC Cancer Care Center in Delhi NCR provides advanced care with experienced doctors and modern technology.
