According to many experts one of the most common types of cancer among women is invasive bre*st cancer.The American Cancer Society claim that about 246,660 new cases of invasive bre*st cancer will be diagnosed in America by the end of 2016, and nearly 40,450 women will die from it.

As we already know early detection is crucial for positive treatment results. But to detect this type cancer early, it’s important to know the signs and symptoms it gives in the early stages.



Here are the 5 most common early bre*st cancer symptoms, that many women ignored, but recognizing them earlier may be vital to saving your life.

1. A New Mole / Change in an Existing Mole
While moles are usually connected with a higher risk of skin cancer,they can also be linked to bre*st cancer. In one study, researchers followed 89,902 women ages 40-65 years old, and noted their medical records over a period of 18 years. At the beginning of the study, the researches documented the number of moles each woman had. During the study, 5,956 of the women were diagnosed with bre*st cancer. The study concluded that women who have more moles have a 13% higher risk of bre*st cancer than women who had no moles.

2. A Cough or Hoarse Throat That Won’t Subside
Everyone should know that if the cancer starts in one area is known as the primary cancer. But if some of the cancer cells break away from the primary cancer and they move on to another part of the body, then they can form another tumor, which is called secondary cancer. At this point we should know that bre*st cancer can spread to the lungs, and it can be easily detected by a prolonged cough or hoarseness.Also we should mentioned that the cancer spreads to the lungs in 60-70% of women who become terminally ill from bre*st cancer. Dry cough and shortness of breath are the most common symptoms of this type of cancer.




3. Changes in the Bladder or Bowels
Breast cancer can also cause hormonal changes that dry out the urethra, and make it difficult to control the bladder. This condition is known as incontinence, and the most common signs are leaking urine during activities such as coughing, laughing, sneezing or exercising, experiencing sudden and urgent needs to urinate, and urination that takes longer than usual.So, if you notice any of these symptoms in you, then you should visit your doctor immediately.

4. Fatigue
Fatigue is the most common symptom in bre*st cancer patients and survivors, but it’s also often present before diagnosis.This fatigue that appears due to the cancer cannot be alleviated by sleep or rest. Also this fatigue is especially very severe and often associated with high levels of distress, unrelated to amount of exertion. In addition you need to know that this fatigue is often accompanied by some other symptoms, such as pain, sleep disturbance and depression. According to many researchers this fatigue is caused by an imbalance of chemicals in the body which the cancer creates.

5. Unexplained Back Pain
Back pain is a common medical problem. Namely 8 out of 10 people experience this type of pain at some point in their lives.But in some cases back pain can also be a sign that bre*st cancer tumors are forming.In cases where the Back pain is associated with bre*st cancer you may feel like pressure on the ribs and spine, or pain in the upper back that feels like it’s coming from the bones.This could be a sign that the cancer has spread to the spine, and you should visit your doctor immediately!
