Breast Cancer Statistics

 

Breast cancer statistics are important to help raise awareness of breast cancer. Although numerous cancer research has been done to understand the disease better, breast cancer is still one of the leading causes of death worldwide. 

 

Breast Cancer Statistics:

 

In women, breast cancer is the second most common cancer next to lung cancer.


There are millions of affected women in the world and 200,000 more will be diagnosed with the disease each year.  Current statistics show that breast cancer claims the life of 1 woman every 13 minutes.

 

It would be really beneficial if there is higher awareness on breast cancer. Knowing about the disease, its causes, symptoms, treatment and management, will greatly help patients and families of these patients understand the disease better.
