  1. Invasive ductal carcinoma
  2. Invasive lobular carcinoma

The first symptoms of breast cancer usually appear as an area of thickened tissue in the breast or a lump in the breast or an armpit.

Other symptoms include:
  • Pain in the armpits or breast that does not change with the monthly cycle
  • Pitting or redness of the skin of the breast, similar to the surface of an orange

  • Peeling, flaking, or scaling of the skin on the breast or nipple

  • Remember these symptoms can happen with other conditions that are not cancer.


Know What the Risk Factors Are for Breast Cancer
Most breast cancers are found in women who are around 50 years old or older. Some women will get breast cancer even without any other risk factors that they know of. Having a risk factor does not mean you will get the disease, and not all risk factors have the same effect. If you have breast cancer risk factors, talk with your doctor with your problems.
Risk Factors You Cannot Change
  • Getting older
  • Genetic mutations
  • Reproductive history
  • Having dense breasts
  • Personal history of breast cancer or certain non-cancerous breast diseases
  • Family history of breast cancer
  • Previous treatment using radiation therapy
  • Women who took the drug diethylstilbestrol (DES)


Breast Cancer Treatment in India
Breast cancer treatment depends on several factors, including:
  • The type and stage of the cancer
  • The person's sensitivity to hormones
  • The age, overall health, and preferences of the individual


And the main breast cancer treatment options include:
Surgery: An operation where doctors cut out cancer tissue.
Chemotherapy: Using special medicines to shrink or kill the cancer cells. The drugs can be pills you take or medicines given in your veins, or sometimes both.
Hormone therapy: Blocks cancer cells from getting the hormones they need to grow.
Biological therapy: Works with your body’s immune system to help it fight cancer cells or to control side effects from other cancer treatments.
Radiation therapy. Using high-energy rays (similar to X-rays) to kill the cancer cells.

8 WARNING SIGNS OF BREAST CANCER

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women. Breast cancer is cancer that develops in breast cells. Typically, the cancer forms in either the lobules or the ducts of the breast. Lobules are the glands that produce milk, and ducts are the pathways that bring the milk from the glands to the nipple. Cancer can also occur in the fatty tissue or the fibrous connective tissue within your breast.
Types of breast cancer
There are several types of breast cancer, and they are broken into two main categories: “invasive” and “noninvasive,” or in situ.
These two categories are used to describe the most common types of breast cancer, which include:
Ductal carcinoma in situ: Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a noninvasive condition. With DCIS, the cancer cells are confined to the ducts in your breast and haven’t invaded the surrounding breast tissue.

Lobular carcinoma in situ: Lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS) is cancer that grows in the milk-producing glands of your breast. Like DCIS, the cancer cells haven’t invaded the surrounding tissue.
Invasive ductal carcinoma: Invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) is the most common type of breast cancer. This type of breast cancer begins in your breast’s milk ducts and then invades nearby tissue in the breast. Once the breast cancer has spread to the tissue outside your milk ducts, it can begin to spread to other nearby organs and tissue.
Invasive lobular carcinoma: Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) first develops in your breast’s lobules and has invaded nearby tissue.

Other, less common types of breast cancer include:
Paget disease of the nipple: This type of breast cancer begins in the ducts of the nipple, but as it grows, it begins to affect the skin and areola of the nipple.
Phyllodes tumor: This very rare type of breast cancer grows in the connective tissue of the breast. Most of these tumors are benign, but some are cancerous.
Angiosarcoma: This is cancer that grows on the blood vessels or lymph vessels in the breast.

Here are the following are the major 8 signs of breast cancer:

1. Thickening or lump inside the breast or underarm area
2. Change in the shape and size of the breast
3. Scaly sore, Itchy, or rash on the nipple
4. Nipple discharge that starts suddenly
5. Redness, warmth, swelling or darkening
6. Skin dimpling or puckering
7. Pulling in of your breast or nipple and
8. New pain in only one spot that doesn’t go away

What are Breast Cancer Signs, Symptoms, Causes, Types, Treatment



Cancer that forms in the cells of the breasts. Breast cancer is a cancer that develops from breast tissue. Signs of breast cancer may include a lump in the breast, a change in breast shape, dimpling of the skin, and fluid coming from the nipple, a newly inverted nipple, or a red or scaly a patch of skin.
Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in women after skin cancer.
Symptoms of breast cancer include a lump in the breast, bloody discharge from the nipple and changes in the shape or texture of the nipple or breast.
Its treatment depends on the stage of cancer. It may consist of chemotherapy, radiation, hormone therapy, and surgery.


1.       A breast lump or thickening that feels different from the surrounding tissue
2.       Change in the size, shape or appearance of a breast
3.       Changes to the skin over the breast, such as dimpling
4.       A newly inverted nipple
5.       Peeling, scaling, crusting or flaking of the pigmented area of skin surrounding the nipple (areola) or breast skin
6.       Redness or pitting of the skin over your breast, like the skin of an orange

Causes: - Specialists realize that bosom malignancy happens when some bosom cells start to develop unusually. These cells separate more quickly than sound cells do and keep on aggregating, shaping a bump or mass. Cells may spread (metastasize) through your bosom to your lymph hubs or to different pieces of your body.
Bosom disease frequently starts with cells in the milk-creating pipes (obtrusive ductal carcinoma). Bosom malignant growth may likewise start in the glandular tissue called lobules (obtrusive lobular carcinoma) or in different cells or tissue inside the bosom.

Breast Cancer Types may include:

·         Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS)
·         Inflammatory breast cancer
·         Invasive lobular carcinoma
·         Lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS)
·         Male breast cancer
·         Paget's disease of the breast
·         Recurrent breast cancer


What is the best treatment for breast cancer?
Its treatment depends on the stage of cancer. It may consist of chemotherapy, radiation, hormone therapy and surgery.
Lumpectomy. This is the removal of the tumor and a small, cancer-free margin of healthy tissue around the tumor. Most of the breast remains. For invasive cancer, radiation therapy to the remaining breast tissue is generally recommended after surgery.
