How Non Smoker Get Breast Cancer?
Some people have taken smoking for fashion but this trend of
theirs can lead them at the threshold of most ugly form of
cancer - Breast cancer. The studies and researches draw a line
between truth and myth. One of existing misconceptions is the
myth that young men generally get addicted fast to smoking. But
it has been found that young women adapt this bad habit much
quickly than young men. The next horrid conclusion that comes
forward is that passive smoker is at high risk of breast cancer
than chain smokers.
World health organization shows us the true picture of smoking
by associating it with 25 cancers like uterine, kidneys, cervix,
and pancreas. Women and non smoker are finding more prone to the
breast cancer than any other form of cancer and unfortunately
sufferers' list is going high day by day. It proves that smoking
is not only deteroiting chain smoker health but also showing its
side effects on health of persons standing near by him. For
women, smoking is synonym of death as it enhances the risk of
heart strokes and heart attacks making them the worst victim and
the chances get ten fold if they are using medicines for birth
control along with smoking.
List of ill effects produced by smoking never ends making it a
never ending process. Smoker take cigarette happily thinking
that it will free them of tensions and stress but it releases
them of their life. Dull look is easily visible on face. They
soon develop wrinkles. They suffer of bad breath and yellow
teeth and are ever complaining about tongue and stomach ulcers.
Children adopt bad habit more quickly than elders do. Parents
who smoke inspire their wards to follow their black footsteps by
their wrong habit and setting wrong example for them. Children
of such parents can never differentiate between good and bad
because from their initial developing stage they have only seen
bad deeds.
Smoking blocks person thinking capacity. It makes one so much
addicted that for every tense stage in life he needs its help.

The number of older patients with breast cancer has increased along with overall elderly population, as per background information in the article. About half of patients with breast cancer are older than 65 years and 35 percent are older than 70; 77 percent of breast cancer deaths occur in women older than 55. Choosing the appropriate therapy for older patients is a challenge, because a number of have other serious illnesses in addition to their cancer that may threaten their health and shorten their lives. Questions remain about the best screening protocols for elderly women, as well. Some current guidelines suggest that women stop having mammograms at age 70, while others provide no upper limit....
