There have been a number of misconceptions about breast cancer. Primary among these is that pre-menopausal women aren’t at a significant risk of developing this type of cancer. However, the American Cancer Society revealed that this is the leading cause of death by cancer for women between the ages of 20 to 59 in the United States. Hence age is less of an indicator of risk for cancer of the breast than first thought to be. Increasing awareness of among all strata of women is the role of breast cancer bracelets.

Why breast cancer bracelets?

Cancer of the breast is an insidious disease affecting the lives of millions of American women today. Breast cancer bracelets help increase the awareness of the symptoms, causes and treatment in an effort to stem the disease before it gets to a critical stage. The legendary cyclist Lance Armstrong, a cancer survivor himself, once wore a yellow bracelet with the words ‘Live Strong’ at the Tour de France, to advocate the need for cancer survivors to overcome the disease and move on in life with faith and courage.

His example paved the way for pink bracelets to be worn at fund-raising events such as cancer runs and walks. Inspiring words such as ‘Hope’ or ‘Faith’ and ‘Courage’ are very often etched on the bracelet. Pink is the color of cancer of the breast awareness in the same way as red is stands for awareness of HIV and AIDS.

The corresponding ribbon is also pink in color. This beautiful shade of color was chosen for its liveliness and positive vibe to cancer sufferers. Hope is an essential element in the treatment of this cancer. With hope, cancer sufferers can look forward to a day when they will be cancer free. The absence of hope defeats even the best medical properties.

Pink is a lovely color often associated with women and by purchasing breast cancer bracelets, a portion of the money will be donated to research into the disease. The Cancer Research Foundation thrives on money generated through such generous contributions and has paved the way for new cures and treatment to help cancer sufferers manage and fight the disease.

These bracelets are now in the forefront of the battle against cancer. It’s a perennial message of hope and courage to cancer victims. You can do your part to raise awareness by promoting the use of attractive breast cancer bracelets.

I thought my TV reception was messed up because I keep seeing pink cap bills, pink wrist and arm bands, and then a pink ribbon on the football field. If the pregame and post-game hosts want to wear a supporting pin on their lapel I can accept that. But football is about forgetting about the trials of life and feeling alive.

What do women need to know about breast cancer and early detection?

In recent years, the incidence of breast cancer among women has increased. As a result of this, organizations that aim to raise breast cancer awareness have doubled their efforts to give women around the world the right information to help them prevent and deal with this disease. These organizations teach women to detect early signs of cancer and recognize the symptoms of the disease. It has been proven that early detection increases a woman?s chance of survival by as much as 96 percent.

Symptoms

Some of the symptoms that women are told to watch out for include lumps, which are usually firm and painless. Other possible symptoms include swelling on the underarms and on the skin on the breasts which then develops an unusual appearance. Women are also asked to look out for veins that become prominent in the breast area. Other symptoms also include inverting of the nipples, rashes and changes in skin texture, depressions on the breast area and discharges other than breast milk.

Early Detection Plan

However, looking out for symptoms is usually not enough in detecting this disease, since there are instances in which patients are asymptomatic until the cancer reaches stage 3 or 4. To be able to prevent this, breast cancer organizations encourage women to come up with an early detection plan, which includes clinical breast examinations every three years for women aged 20 to 39, then every year thereafter. A monthly breast examination for women beginning at age 20 is also encouraged. Mammograms every two years for women in their 40s and yearly mammograms for women in their 50s are also being emphasized. Women are also told to keep a record of these exams and their appointments with their doctors. Additionally, women are urged to eat a low-fat diet, engage in regular exercise and avoid smoking and drinking alcohol.

The importance of early detection of breast cancer cannot be denied since it has been proven to increase a cancer patient?s survival rate by as much as 96 percent. Given this, it is then important for women to do what they can to prevent having to suffer unnecessarily from this disease. Having an early detection plan is an effective way of doing just that.
