Breast Cancer, The Silent Killer

I'm sure every woman loves her breasts. Until now, breasts are still considered to be "the beauty factor" on woman's body. And as I wrote up there, there's a sillent killer who silently attack your precious breasts, girls. It can't take your breasts away and even your own life.

The silent killer is the breast cancer. It can happen to anyone of us, no matter what color you have, old and young, SAHM or WM, anyone...

Right now, breast cancer is the #1 killer in this world. Breast cancer mostly happens to women around 35-45 years old. As an analogy, there're 26 women among 100 women who have this cancer on her body. Sounds creepy, huh?

The research found out that almost 50% of these women don't even realize that the silent killer is killing them slowly from the inside. And when they finally "woke up", it's been too late. Most of them find out about this breast cancer when they're on the 3rd or 4th stadium already. At this stadium, it's quite late for medical treatment or therapy.

The experts believe that smokers, alcohol drinkers, and junk food lovers are the main target if this silent killer. We call this cancer as silent killer, since you won't realize that's its already in your body for so long. At the 1st stadium, you won't see any particular signs of breast cancer at all. Ironically, this is the only stadium where you have 100% possibility of a fully recovered condition. At the 2nd and 3rd stadium, the possibility of recovery is between 60%-70%. And at 4th stadium, you only have 15% chance of recovery.

So, you need to increase your breast cancer awareness, my female friends. Check your breasts condition regularly using mammogram. Early detection will provide you a better chance of recovery. And the most important thing of all is to keep a healthy way of life. Prevention in the best of all. Don't you agree?
