First, the age question. Breast cancer is mainly a disease of ageing. 80 per cent of those diagnosed with it are over 50, it;s rare in women under 40 and almost unheard of in under 25s. Every day on here there are posts from teenagers terrified that they have breast cancer because of perfectly normal hormonal activity; the chances of a teenager getting breast cancer are very close to zero. The American Cancer Society recommends that women begin breast self-examination at the age of 20. Breast cancer usually has no symptoms at all in its early stages; the following are the signs and symptoms of possible breast cancer: change in size - one breast may have become noticeably larger or lower nipple change - if it becomes inverted (pulled in) or changes its position or shape rash - on or around the nipple discharge - from one or both nipples puckering or dimpling - around nipple swelling – in your armpit or around your collarbone (from lymph nodes) lump or thickening - that feels different from the rest of the breast tissue - but remember that most breast lumps are not cancerous
