Get To Know Your Risk Factors for Breast Cancer

Risk factors for breast cancer can include:

- Not having children or having children over the age of 30
- Dense breast tissue that makes it difficult to feel or see small breast cancers
- Gene mutations that predispose women to developing breast cancers
