While the percentage of women dying from breast cancer has gone down in recent decades, Black women remain more likely to die from breast cancer than women of any other racial or ethnic group (40% higher), and breast cancer is the leading cause of death for Latin women living in the U.S. Get the facts and help here: https://lnkd.in/gUcZGz2 #healthaccessforall #supportwomenshealth #healthcareforall #womenshealth

It’s still October, the pink month, and we cannot stay silent about men and breast cancer. Can men have breast cancer without breasts? Yes, men do have breast tissue, which means they can also develop breast cancer. While approximately 99% of breast cancer cases occur in women, 0.5% to 1% of cases affect men. The treatment of breast cancer in men follows the same principles of management as in women. Early detection and treatment are crucial for both genders. Spread the word awareness can save lives. Stay safe, get checked, and take action early. #BreastCancerAwareness #PinkOctober #BreastCancerInMen #CancerAwareness #EarlyDetectionSavesLives #MensHealth #StaySafe #HealthEducation #CancerPrevention #SpreadTheWord
