Breast cancer affects men despite common myth
Men can develop breast cancer, with a general risk of one in 1,000 and higher risk for those with family history or BRCA2 mutations. Delayed diagnosis is common due to misconceptions or embarrassment, but early detection improves outcomes. Treatment includes mastectomy, estrogen blockers, and radiation, similar to female breast cancer cases.
