- Abstract
The article discusses strategies that will reduce the risk of breast cancer among women. According to previous studies, breast cancer risk is reduced in women with full-term pregnancy before the ages of mid-twenties and in women who breastfed their babies. A study conducted by the Collaborative Group on Hormonal Factors in Breast Cancer revealed that lower risk of breast cancer is associated with early, multiple pregnancies.
