Show Notes
Breast cancer, the most prevalent cancer in women, is influenced by genetics, hormones, and environmental factors. Inherited gene mutations, like BRCA, can increase risk by five to eight times. Hormonal influences, such as early menstruation, also play a role. Environmental links, including air pollution and chemicals in plastics and pesticides, are being explored. A recent study found women near Superfund sites had a 27% higher risk of metastatic breast cancer, highlighting the need for better protections.
