Breast Cancer: Beware! Do you stay up all night? Lumps aren't the only causes of breast cancer, but they are also major causes.

Early Detection of Breast Cancer: Breast cancer is spreading rapidly among women. Let us tell you which symptoms are visible in your lifestyle and what has been revealed about it.

 

Breast cancer cases among women in India are increasing at a rate of approximately 6 percent each year, which is a matter of concern.

According to a recent study, poor sleep, chronic stress, and increasing obesity are the major causes. As a result, even younger women are now being affected by breast cancer.

According to an ICMR study, lifestyle changes are playing a significant role in the increasing incidence of breast cancer. Experts say that instead of relying solely on mammography, there is now a need for risk-based screening and increased awareness, especially among young women.

There's now solid evidence emerging about the harms of sleep deprivation. Data from the National Center for Disease Informatics and Research suggests that disrupted sleep patterns disrupt the body's biological clock, affecting melatonin, estrogen balance, immunity, and DNA repair, which can increase the risk of cancer.

Although poor sleep isn't considered as significant a risk factor as age or genetics, it's now being recognized as a significant modifiable risk factor.

Doctors say many women, even without a family history, are developing breast cancer due to chronic sleep deprivation, stress, and metabolic disorders.

Obesity, especially the fat accumulated around the abdomen, is considered more dangerous. This fat produces inflammatory factors in the body, increases insulin resistance, and raises estrogen levels. After menopause, this fat becomes the main source of estrogen, which can increase the risk of breast cancer.

Experts say that lifestyle changes can significantly reduce the risk. Getting enough sleep, managing stress, and maintaining a healthy weight improve the body's immunity and hormonal balance. This not only reduces the risk of cancer but also reduces the risk of cancer recurrence after treatment.

In India, breast cancer is now more prevalent among women aged 35 to 50. Late marriage and motherhood, infrequent breastfeeding, sedentary lifestyle, and stress are believed to be the reasons for this.

Experts believe that, in such cases, lifestyle modifications, sleep habits, and stress management are equally important
