Answer by doodlebuttus
There are certain types of breast cancer that put you at a greater risk.
My mom has breast cancer, and it is an aggressive, estrogen-fed cancer. It puts me at a greatly increased risk, as it may have been the hereditary type. That means I have to avoid any estrogen birth control because I am at a greatly increased risk of developing breast cancer. Women with the BRCA1 mutation (a hereditary risk factor) have a 20% increase in breast cancer when using estrogen birth control.
Since we don’t know what breast cancer my mom had, I have to avoid it to be safe.
I hope that made sense.

Answer by hb232
there is no sure way to prevent breast cancer; however, regular exercise and eating healthy can’t hurt. Make sure you are doing monthly self breast exams and getting a mammogram if you 40 or over (or earlier if you have a history).
