Thank you @livingbeyondbc for sharing the facts this #breastcancerawarenessmonth! Repost: An estimated 310,720 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in 2024. Family history, age, inherited genetic mutations, breast density, exercise, and so many other factors determine your risk. To learn your comprehensive risk for breast cancer please consider joining us in the WISDOM Study- you'll receive a risk assessment- including genetic test - and receive genetic counseling (if needed) and personalized recommendations for screening and risk reduction. You can then share all the educational materials we provide you with your medical team. www.thewisdomstudy.org
