Breast cancer patients have several options when it comes to treatment. ++[Breast cancer](https://www.cancer.gov/types/breast)++ mortality rates have significantly decreased because breast cancers can be quickly diagnosed with a breast MRI.

Breast cancer research has shown that it is crucial for women with breast cancer risk to self-examine to identify any breast lump they may have. As women age, they need to undergo mammograms on a regular basis so changes in breast tissue are easily identified.

Breast tissue may offer some symptoms, but women must consider their risk factors. ++[Genetic counseling](https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Clare-Turnbull/publication/5313326_Genetic_Predisposition_to_Breast_Cancer_Past_Present_and_Future/links/02e7e536a28ac49608000000/Genetic-Predisposition-to-Breast-Cancer-Past-Present-and-Future.pdf)++ is imperative when it comes to proper cancer care.

There are several methods for treating breast cancer cells. A breast cancer doctor will determine the cancer type before suggesting recommended breast cancer treatment options.

Common breast cancers are:

- Ductal carcinoma in situ
- Invasive ductal carcinoma
- Lobular carcinoma
- Triple-negative breast cancer
- Inflammatory breast cancer
- Advanced metastatic breast cancer

In the United States, ++[approximately 266,400 people](https://www.cdc.gov/cancer/breast/basic_info/index.htm)++ are diagnosed with breath cancer every year.

Success in treatment will depend on the early detection of breast cancer symptoms. Success might not necessarily mean a breast cancer cure, but rather survivorship.
