Factors like genetics, lifestyle habits, and hormonal influences can increase the risk of breast cancer. Detection methods include self-examination, regular check-ups, mammograms, ultrasounds, MRIs, and biopsies.
Treatment options depend on the cancer type and stage, ranging from surgery to targeted drug therapies.
