What is invasive breast cancer

In recent years, the number of people suffering from breast cancer has increased significantly, and more and more terms have appeared among the public, such as invasive breast cancer. So what exactly is invasive breast cancer? In fact, invasive breast cancer is a type of breast cancer. Breast cancer can be divided into invasive breast cancer and non-invasive breast cancer according to the degree of tumor infiltration. Invasive breast cancer accounts for a relatively large proportion of tumors and seriously affects the prognosis of breast cancer.

Invasive breast cancer is the most common tumor in women, accounting for 22% of all malignant tumors in women. In economically developed countries, the incidence rate is 26%, which is more than twice that of other countries. The high-risk areas for invasive breast cancer are North America, Europe and Australia, and 6% of women develop invasive breast cancer before the age of 75. In economically underdeveloped regions of sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, and East Asia (including Japan), the risk of breast cancer is lower than in economically developed countries. The probability of women developing invasive breast cancer before the age of 75 is only one-third of that in wealthy countries. The frequency of invasive breast cancer in women in other regions is somewhere in between.

Since the late 1970s, the survival of breast cancer patients in Western countries has been greatly improved; by the 1990s, due to population surveys and the use of hormone-assisted therapy, the survival of breast cancer patients has been significantly improved. Like most epithelial tumors, the incidence of breast cancer increases rapidly with age.

By the 1990s, the incidence of breast cancer had increased tenfold worldwide, but there were obvious differences in potential causes, regional changes, and migrating populations. From areas with low breast cancer incidence to areas with high incidence, after one or two generations, the incidence rate approached the level of the migrating country, indicating that environmental factors play an important role in the etiology of breast cancer.

Doctors recommend that cancer patients take Chinese medicine as a way to relieve and treat cancer. It can not only relieve pain and prolong life, but also reduce toxicity, increase efficacy, enhance immunity, and correct chemotherapy. However, you should pay attention to your diet during the medication period, avoid cold, spicy and greasy foods, and at the same time keep a happy and comfortable mood, which can restore the body's health.
