Why Are More Young Women Being Diagnosed With Breast Cancer?

Why Are More Young Women Being Diagnosed with Breast Cancer?

A breast cancer diagnosis can come as a huge shock to young women, and the challenges that come with their diagnosis can be vastly different from those in post-menopausal women.

In this episode, we sit down with Professor Prue Francis to discuss how common it is for young women to be diagnosed with breast cancer, what challenges come with this diagnosis, and how Breast Cancer Trials are working to improve the treatments for those in this age group.

Tune in for a deep dive into this important topic.
