The tumor can be bening (isn t dangerous for the health), these are not considerate cancerous,or bad (is dangerous), these are cancerous, and if these are not controlled, the cells can grow into surrounding tissues or spread to distant areas of the body. Sometimes a one tumor can be a combination of diferent types and in some very weird types of cancer, the  cells may not form a lump or tumor.  

Breast Cancer occurs almost ever  in women, but men can get breast cancer too.

Breast Cancer can begin in different parts of the breast. A breast is made up of three main parts: lobules: the glands that produce milk, ducts:tubes that carry milk to the nipple, and connective tissue: surrounds and holds everything together. Most breast cancers begin in the ducts or lobules,but can spread outside the breast through blood vesseles and lymph vasseles. When breast cancer spreads to other parts of the body, it is said to have metastasized.]]> 2017-05-03 12:42:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mirenna_lucia/thwjz782q0lk/wish/169656986 mirenna_lucia https://padlet.com/mirenna_lucia/thwjz782q0lk/wish/170164561 The most common kinds of Breast Cancer are:
Carcinoma:starts in the cells that the line  organs on tissues (epithelial cells).
Invasive ductal carcinoma: the cancer cells grow outside the ducts into other parts of the breast tissues . Invasive cancer cells spread to other parts of the body.
Ductal cancinoma in situ and lobulal cancinoama in situ:they are not cancerous cells,but may lead to breast cancer. .They grow in lobules ,but they don´t grow  trought the wall of the lobules.
Invasive lobular carcinoma: cancer cells spread from the lobules to the breast tissues that are close . These invasive cancer cells can also spread to other parts of the body.
Inductal cancer carcinoma: it´s the most common one.Starts in the milk duct of the breast,breaks trought the wall of the uct ,and grow into the fatty tissues of the breast.
Male breast cancer: mens don´t have breast,but they have breast tissues. Their breast tissues usually get flat and small, however they can develop real breast gland tissues becaue of taking certain medicines or having unusual hormone levels,

There are several other less common kinds of breast cancer, such as Paget s disease, medullary, mucinous, and inflammatory breast cancer.
Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a breast disease  that may lead to breast cancer.

The main risk factor is  being a woman and getting older. Most breast cancers are found in women who are 50 years old or older.
Some women can get breast cancer even without any other risk factor,like:
1. Genetic Mutations: women who have  inherited these genetic changes are at higher risk of breast  cancer.
2. Early menstrual period: women who start their periods before age 12.
3. Late or no pregnancy: having the first pregnancy after age 30.
4. Starting menopause after age 55.
5. Not being phisically active: being overweigth or obese after menopause.Also be sedentary.
6.Having dense breast: people with dense breast have more connective tissues than fatty tissues.Sometimes it´s harder to see the tumors or mammograms in this conditions.
7. Using combination hormone therapy: taking hormones to replace missing estrogen and progestorone in menopause for more than five     years.The hormones that had been afected are the ones that increase the risks.
8. Taking oral pills.
9. Personal history of breast cancer.
10. Family history of breast cancer.
11. Previous treatments using radiation therapy.
12. Women who took the medicine diethylstillbestrol: this medicine was given to some pregnant women to prevent miscarriage.Women whose mother took this medicine while pregnant have a higher risk.
13. Drinkin alcohol.
14. Smoking.
15. Being exposed to lots of chemiclas.
16. Being night shiftworker.

It depends on the kind of breast cancer and how far it has spread. People with breast cancer often get more than one kind of treatment.
The treatments are:
1. Surgery: in this operation,the cancer tissue was cut out.
2. Chemotherapy: the use of medicines to reduce the sized or kill the cancer cells.
3. Hormonal Therapy: dosen´t allow cancer cells getting the hormones they need to grow.
4.Biological Therapy: works with the body´s inmune system ,helping it figth cancer cells or to control  effects from other cancer treatments.
5.Radiation Therapy: the use of high-energy rays (similar to x-rays) to kill the cancer cells.

If the cancer tumor had expanded ,to much more treatments will be need.However,other factors are concidered,for example:
- if the cells have hormonal reseptors.
- if the cells have many amount of protein.
- Also has to do with the personal wealth and fisically reference.]]> 2017-05-06 23:47:29 UTC https://padlet.com/mirenna_lucia/thwjz782q0lk/wish/170333140 mirenna_lucia https://padlet.com/mirenna_lucia/thwjz782q0lk/wish/170333375 Diferent people have diferents symptoms of breast cancer.

-Visit the gynecologist.
-Do the necessary exams:
-The mammography: is a image of the breast ,by x rays ,use to test the breast for the detection of early cancer and other illneses in the area.
Some doctors advice womens older than 40 years old to do the mammography exam every  years. However, the womens with more risk of develop breast cancer should do their first mammography exam at their 25 years old,and  start with the mammography every  years at their 45 years old.

-Sometimes after do some exams such as  the mammography, is request to do a breast ultrasound (a machine that make detailed picture, called sonograms ,by sounds waves, of areas inside the breast),for more information like, difene the difference  between a solid lump or a cyst, search for a tumor.
This exam is request ,if in the breast it is find a tumor, if there are a weird mammography ,or a nipple discharge.
