Cynthia Jordan: Men Can And Do Get Breast Cancer

Cynthia Jordan, Breast Cancer Advocate, shared a post on LinkedIn:               .

“Happy Father’s Day! As part of the global movement to educate, inspire and connect on breast health-today we want to make sure all MEN are aware of breast cancer risks and symptoms!

MEN CAN AND DO GET BREAST CANCER
Yes, breast cancer overwhelmingly affects women, but men also have breast tissue and are at risk of developing breast cancer. In the United States, less than 1% of all breast cancers occur in men.
In 2023, an estimated 2,800 men in the United States will be diagnosed with breast cancer.
It is estimated that 530 men will die from this disease in the United States in 2023.
About one in 833 men will develop breast cancer in their lifetime.”
