According to BreastCancer.org, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing reliable, complete and current information about breast cancer, only 5 - 10 percent of cancers are due to an abnormality inherited from a parent.
While all breast cancer are caused by a genetic abnormality, roughly 90 percent of breast cancer cases are the result of genetic abnormalities that are a result of everyday life.
This information is from BreastCancer.org.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and we will be posting informative blogs all month about Breast Cancer. Please check back.
Good health to us all,
Leigh
