Cancer can be defined as a disease that is characterized by uncontrolled cell division and the ability of these cells to invade other tissues, either by direct growth into adjacent tissue or by migration of cells to distant sites As many women as have developed breast cancer have no identifiable hazards other than their gender. When you are been diagnose to have been a breast cancer patient, the question that normally crop up is “I have no family history of breast cancer or any risk and hazard factors, where did this come from”.

Family history is just one of the risk factors for male breast cancer but to that of a woman, there are several hazards and risk factors that boost the chances of having breast cancer, which is complex; hence the need to promote awareness and take steps for prevention.

The hazards of breast cancer, which is a disease tragically known to be common among women may have overlooked the most obvious cause of all: the wearing of bras (tight bras).

The cuff link between Breast Cancer and Bras is based on personal experiences. It happens that when the breast is chronically restricted by a bra, the lymph system that surrounds it may become blocked thereby preventing the lymph from carrying out its function of removing toxins from the area, thus making cancer to be more likely.

Women who wore their bras more than 12 hours a day or so tightly as to cause red marks on their skin are much more likely to have contracted breast cancer. They're really invested in wearing bras; women identify with their breasts so much. Can they stop wearing bras if it meant saving their lives, if this is the case, one’s life matters a great deal.
