What is breast cancer?

Breast cancer is a deadly tumor (collection of cancer cells) generated from breast cells. Although breast cancer occurs primarily in women, it can also affect men. This article deals with breast cancer in women. Breast cancer and its complications can affect almost every part of the body.
What is the cause of breast cancer
There are several risk factors that increase the likelihood of breast cancer development. Although we know some of these risk factors, we do not know the cause of breast cancer or these factors cause cancerous growth.
We know that due to mutation in DNA, normal breast cells become cancerous, and although some of these are inherited, most DNA changes related to breast cells are acquired during one's life.
Proto-oncogenes help in developing cells. If these cells are mutated, they can increase the development of cells without any control. Such mutations are known as oncogenes. Such uncontrolled cell development can cause cancer.
