Breast cancer affects men despite common myth
Breast cancer can affect men despite common myths, with a risk of approximately one in 1,000. Men with family histories of breast cancer or BRCA2 mutations face higher risks, and delayed diagnosis is a concern due to unawareness or embarrassment. Early detection through screening and treatments like mastectomy and estrogen blockers improves outcomes.
