Svetlana Nikic on Breast Cancer Awareness Month: Help me in extending the awareness!

Quoting Svetlana Nikic, Founder of Precision Oncology Consulting, on LinkedIn:

”Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide, affecting millions of people every year. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness and promote early detection of this devastating disease.

Early diagnosis can make a big difference in the treatment outcomes and survival rates of breast cancer patients, as it can increase the chances of successful treatment and reduce the risk of complications. However, many factors, such as cultural and socioeconomic barriers, affect access to screening and diagnosis services, especially in low- and middle-income countries.

Therefore, it is important to educate the public about breast cancer, its risk factors, symptoms, hereditary components and the importance of early detection.

Prevention and healthy lifestyle choices are also essential elements in the fight against breast cancer, as they can lower the risk of developing the disease or improve the prognosis.

So with this in mind, talk about it with your friends, partners, family members and colleagues and help me in extending the awareness!”
