The woman perceives a cancer of a mammary gland as the most ominous disease. Perhaps, even to AIDS about which so speak mass-media much there is no such panic fear, in comparison with a cancer. And it is not so casual. Among malignant tumours at women this disease costs on 1 place. If to take the world statistics annually this disease comes to light more than at 1 million person. Men are ill with it not only women, but also. However among them this not so widespread phenomenon.
 What promotes a mammary gland cancer?
One known gynecologist spoke - the woman should give birth in the life at least time - either the child, or a cancer tumour. What did he mean? And that occurrence of this illness is influenced directly by a sexual life of the woman. Pay attention, who is is more often predisposed or, say, risks more than others to be ill with a mammary gland cancer:
1. Women begun a late sexual life ((after 25 years). Virginity preservation on belief or belief to good will not finish).
2. Women who at all neglect a sexual life.
3. Women who have late become pregnant and have given birth (as after 25-30 years).
4. Women at which only one child.
5. Those who nursed the child (less than one year) a little. By the way disease of a cancer of a breast at the Asian women is observed less often, than at Europeans. Because Asians feed all more year, and Europeans refuse feeding absolutely is more often.
6. Frequent abortions as influence possibility to be ill.
7. It is not necessary to exclude as hereditary predisposition.
In each case disease arises for whatever reasons. Even it is impossible to answer a question with accuracy - paternal it has occurred at the concrete person. As you can see, предраспологающих it is a lot of factors and all of them are not lightning, they have an effect after many years. The basic role in cancer formation is played by a mutation. Under the influence of cancer cages the genetic material of normal cages of a mammary gland varies, - they turn to the cancer.
Symptoms or displays of a cancer of a mammary gland.
Perhaps each woman knows, that occurrence of any tumour in a breast directs at the first suspicion. It also is the main symptom which the woman is capable to find out in itself. The second variant of detection - special or casual visiting of the doctor for routine inspection. If that another it is necessary long enough and to treat a cancer - the tumour increases also cancer cages start to extend in the nearest lymph nodes. And already then they are carried on all organism and first of all the liver, lungs, a brain, bones are amazed. And already last stage - a lethal outcome then follows.
Treatment.
The way of treatment depends on that illness, from that at what age the patient as the tumour, etc. the Basic treatment - complex quickly grows is how much started: operative вмешательство+лучевая therapy. If illness is started also cancer cages have got in лимфоузлы one operation will be a little. To treatment gives in badly.
Preventive maintenance of a cancer of a mammary gland.
Mammary glands of the woman change throughout all her life. Their form, the sizes and density are influenced by such factors as age, a phase менструального a cycle, pregnancy, feeding by a breast, application of hormonal contraceptives, abortions, менопауза, various traumas - all it can cause their changes.
In most cases consolidations in mammary glands are found out by women casually, therefore we advise to spend regular monthly self-checking according to offered recommendations. As you will do it, at you will appear more confidence that mammary glands are perfectly in order, and you can easily find out the slightest changes in them.
If you have found out changes in your mammary glands, be not frightened, but at the same time try to address as soon as possible to the doctor-mammologu as often serious diseases of mammary glands begin бессимптомно.
The early establishment of the diagnosis is very important as if at the patient the mammary gland cancer there are many variants of treatment and very good chances of full recover is in due time revealed.
Regular self-checking of mammary glands is one of program components «the Healthy mammary gland», including also маммографию at corresponding age, ultrasonic research of mammary glands, regular surveys of the doctor-mammologa (is not more rare than 1 time a year) and preventive maintenance professional вредностей for women of group of risk.
Mammary glands consist of shares, segments, channels, a fibrous fabric and fat with subjects under them muscles and edges.
Therefore it is absolutely normal, that the mammary gland at palpation has non-uniform structure. Shortly before the beginning monthly, and sometimes and during time менструации you can feel easy consolidations, morbidity, small lumps that is a consequence of some puffiness in fabrics in a breast. These displays are norm.
We offer you the scheme of regular monthly self-checking behind a condition of the mammary glands, offered by the World organisation of public health services (CART) within the limits of the program «HEALTHY MAMMARY GLAND»
1st position.
In such position you should examine and estimate a condition of your mammary glands. Rise before a mirror. Examine itself. Whether There is no in your mammary glands something unusual? Whether there are выделений from nipples, сморщивания no skin, deepenings or выбуханий? Each time during self-survey you should be in a habitual, easily reproduced pose in which both your mammary glands are well looked through. We wish to warn you, that the size, the form, outlines of each mammary gland can разниться at each woman, the same it is possible to tell and about normal position of a nipple.
2nd position.
Cross fingers of your hands on a nape. Shoulders should feel pressure of muscles of a breast. Look in a mirror and estimate the form and contours of your mammary glands.
Do not hurry up! Again try to find changes in the sizes, the form and contours of each mammary gland. Pay attention on выбухания, западения, высыпания, change of colour or other unusual skin displays.
3rd position.
Further lean brushes of hands about hips and slightly bend down in a direction to a mirror, as at rowing, having bent shoulders and elbows. Again you should feel pressure of muscles of a breast. Look for change of the form and contours of both mammary glands.
4th position.
Slightly compress each nipple. Pay attention, whether is not present выделений. If they are present, address to the doctor-mammologu. If allocation are present constantly, you should discuss it with the doctor.
5th position.
The following investigation phase is made in position standing. Lift the left hand. Small pillows of fingers of the right hand probe your left mammary gland round a nipple, paying attention on consolidations. Do it carefully and accurately. Some women use thus лосьон or the powder helping their fingers it is easier to slide on a skin. At palpation try to pay attention to unusual small knots or consolidations under a skin. The small knot is considered unusual if it at the previous researches did not come to light.
Some researchers consider, that at the women spending self-inspection of the mammary glands, it turns out better if movement of fingers goes from top to down. Others prefer other model of research (the presented illustrations see).
Inspection of all surface of a mammary gland is important, paying special attention on area between a breast and a hand (axillary area). Research of zones over a breast, under it, and also over a clavicle and in the field of the top part of a shoulder is necessary.
6th position.
Carry out the research of mammary glands specified in the previous point in a prone position. Lay down exactly on a couch on a back, the left hand take away for a head, under the left shoulder enclose a small small pillow. Such position levels a mammary gland and does easier it прощупывание. Carefully investigate the left mammary gland and area round it, using one of the offered techniques described in the previous point.
In the same way investigate the right mammary gland, having taken away the right hand for a head and having enclosed a small pillow under the right shoulder.
If your mammary glands volume enough, you can be necessary to press each party of a mammary gland other hand.
7th position.
Some women repeat the procedure described in point №5 in a bathroom. It is easier to your fingers to survey the soaped skin and to concentrate on deeper structures.
The described regular self-checking of mammary glands will help each woman to estimate a condition of the breast. But only regular survey of the doctor-mammologa is not more rare than an once in a year, with use of modern methods of research of mammary glands (ultrasonic, маммография, cytologic research separated of a nipple, дуктография, etc.) will allow to be saved from such terrible disease, as a cancer of mammary glands.
REMEMBER! Your health in your hands.
Each woman should understand, that except it nobody will decide, that it is necessary to pass sometimes medical inspection. If предраспологающих factors you have found point which at you was present in the list it is better to address to the doctor. After one inspection - маммографии - the doctor already will understand, - whether the further inspection is necessary. The woman should accustom to pass itself medical inspection not less often than an once in a year. And the doctor-mammologa needs to be visited at least in two years once.
The moments in preventive maintenance education of girls is important. To learn the girl to concern the health carefully and to live under nature laws - the first step of correct preventive maintenance. Unfortunately on the statistican almost half of women ill with a mammary gland cancer address for the help to the doctor already at late stages of illness. And after all at the reference behind the help at early stages illness recovers more than in 90 % cases.
