1 in 10 children have a diagnosable mental health disorder - that's roughly 3 children in every classroom (i)

1 in 5 young adults have a diagnosable mental health disorder (ii)

Half of all mental health problems manifest by the age of 14, with 75% by age 24 (iii)

Almost 1 in 4 children and young people show some evidence of mental ill health (including anxiety and depression) (iv)

In 2015, suicide was the most common cause of death for both boys (17% of all deaths) and girls (11%) aged between 5 and 19. (v)

1 in 12 young people self-harm at some point in their lives, though there is evidence that this could be a lot higher. Girls are more likely to self-harm than boys. (vi)

It has a big impact in adulthood...

Women who had experienced one childhood adversity had a 66% increased risk of premature death, and those who had experienced two or more adversities had an 80% increased risk compared to their peers (vii)

1 in 3 adult mental health conditions relate directly to adverse childhood experiences (viii)

Young people need more support...

3 in 4 children with a diagnosable mental health condition do not get access to the support that they need (ix)

The average maximum waiting time for a first appointment with CAMHS is 6 months and nearly 10 months until the start of treatment (x)

CAMHS are turning away nearly a quarter (23%) of children referred to them for treatment by concerned parents, GPs, teachers and others (xi)

Just 0.7% of the NHS budget is spent on children's mental health (xii) and only 16% of this is spent on early intervention (xiii)

The cost to the economy of all-age mental health problems is estimated at £105 billion a year - roughly the cost of the entire NHS (xiv)

What are painful periods?Menstruation, or period, is normal vaginal bleeding that happens as part of a woman's monthly cycle. Many women have painful periods, also called dysmenorrhea. The pain is most often menstrual cramps, which are a throbbing, cramping pain in your lower abdomen. You may also have other symptoms, such as lower back pain, nausea, diarrhea, and headaches. Period pain is not the same as premenstrual syndrome (PMS). PMS causes many different symptoms, including weight gain, bloating, irritability, and fatigue. PMS often starts one to two weeks before your period starts

The latest statistics available for breast cancer in the UK are; incidence 2015, mortality 2016, survival 2010-2011 (all ages combined) and 2009-2013 (by age) and screening in the UK is 2009-2010 and England is 2010-2011. Data for in situ breast carcinoma are; incidence 2013, mortality and survival data are not available.

The ICD code for breast cancer is ICD-10 C50. The ICD code for in situ breast carcinoma (non-invasive tumours of the breast) is ICD-10 D05, of which there are two main types: lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS; ICD-10 D05.0) and ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS; ICD-10 D05.1).

European Age-Standardised Rates were calculated using the 2013 European Standard Population (ESP). Previous content used the 1976 European Standard Population. ASRs calculated with ESP2013 are not comparable with ASRs calculated with ESP1976.

Due to the small numbers of men diagnosed with breast cancer each year, most of the information in these pages refers to females only but there are some statistics for breast cancer in males.

Survival statistics give an overall picture of survival and (unless otherwise stated) include all adults (15-99) diagnosed, at all ages, stages co-morbidities . The survival time experienced by an individual patient may be much higher or lower, depending on specific patient and tumour characteristics. and

Meta-analyses systematic reviews cohort studies are reported where such aggregated data are lacking. The evidence on this page is for female breast cancer unless otherwise specified. are cited where available, as they provide the best overview of all available research and most take study quality into account. Individual case-control and and

Routes to diagnosis statistics were calculated from cases of cancer registered in England which were diagnosed in 2012-2013. Staging proportions only include patients with a known stage (cases with an unknown stage at diagnosis are not included in the denominator).

Cancer waiting times statistics are for patients who entered the health care system within financial year 2014-15. Breast cancer is part of the group 'Breast cancer' for cancer waiting times data. Codes vary per country but broadly include: invasive breast cancer and breast in situ.

Cancer surgical resection rates data is for patients diagnosed in England between 2006 and 2010.

Patient Experience data is for adult patients in England with a primary diagnosis of cancer, who were in active treatment between September and November 2013 and who completed a survey in 2014.

The latest statistics available for breast screening in the UK are financial year 2012/13.

The breast screening programmes' definition of breast cancer includes ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) tumours as well as invasive cancer and so theICD codes for statistics on the screening statistics pages are mostly ICD-10 C50 and D05.1, which is different to the other breast statistics on this site.

Deprivation gradient statistics were calculated using incidence data for three time periods: 1996-2000, 2001-2005 and 2006-2010 and for mortality for two time periods: 2002-2006 and 2007-2011. The 1997-2001 mortality data were only used for the all cancers combined group as this time period includes the change in coding from ICD-9 to ICD-10. The deprivation quintiles were calculated using the Income domain scores from the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) from the following years: 2004, 2007 and 2010. Full details on the data and methodology can be found in the Cancer by Deprivation in England NCIN report.

B efore you read these prostate cancer statistics, remember that every man is different and every case is different.

While these statistics include prostate cancer survival rates, they are not absolutes. Also ask your physician for his/her individual statistics as these are based on the national average from men with prostate cancer in the United States.

General statistics

It is estimated that 164,690 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2018

An estimated 1 in 7 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during their lifetime, but only 1 in 39 men will die from the disease

There are more than 2.9 million American men who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer who are still living today

About 6 out of 10 cases of prostate cancer are found in men older than 65

Prostate cancer is the 2nd leading cause of death due to cancer in men

Relative survival rates (for men with all stages of prostate cancer)

According to the American Cancer Society, relative survival assumes that some men will die of other causes and compares the observed survival of men with prostate cancer with the expected rate of survival in men without prostate cancer.

The good news for men with prostate cancer:

99.9% of men are alive at 5 years

98% of men are alive at 10 years

96% of men are alive at 15 years

More prostate cancer statistics

Relative survival rates by stage:

The 5-year survival rate for localized cancer is nearly 100%

The 5-year survival rate for regional cancer is nearly 100%

The 5-year survival rate for distant cancer is approximately 29%

The 5-year relative survival rate refers to the percentage of men who live at least 5 years after their cancer is first diagnosed. These rates are based on men who were diagnosed and first treated for prostate cancer more than 5 years ago.
It is important to note that these numbers are based on results from large numbers of men who had prostate cancer.

Every man is different and these numbers are not predictive of what will happen with your loved one.

”Heart disease is the number one killer of both men and women in the United States, but men are more at risk at an earlier age. On average, women develop heart disease about a decade later due to the protective effects of the female hormone estrogen. Heart attack symptoms are often less vague and specific in women, often including shortness of breath, nausea, jaw, neck or back pain, and fatigue rather than classic chest pain. The traditional risk factors for heart disease are generally the same for both genders: family history, smoking, diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and diabetes or metabolic syndrome. “Ironically, however, women have a higher mortality from heart disease than men due to both underdiagnosis and undertreatment,” Poulina Uddin, MD, a cardiologist at the Scripps Women’s Heart Center in San Diego. ” Readers Digest

Why: Women start out with thinner, smaller bones and less bone tissue than men. Through most of their lives, women's bones are protected by estrogen, which may block a substance that kills bone cells.
