Pregnancy and Breast Cancer Symptoms - Oren Zarif - Pregnancy and Breast Cancer

A woman with early-stage breast cancer may be surprised to learn that there is a connection between pregnancy and breast cancer. The disease can affect a woman at any stage, so the treatment plan should be customized to her needs and the needs of her unborn child. If you suspect that your condition is related to a pregnancy, you should schedule an appointment with your doctor to discuss your options. You may also choose to undergo chemotherapy, which is usually given after the first trimester to minimize risk to the fetus.

Treatments for breast cancer can be risky for the unborn baby, so it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. Treatment can harm the unborn child, and can lead to a miscarriage, birth defects, and slow growth. However, if the disease is detected during pregnancy, it is possible to wait until delivery and receive treatment after the birth of the baby. If you do not feel comfortable undergoing treatment during pregnancy, you can find a support group or join an online one.

Although breast cancer symptoms are more difficult to detect during pregnancy, if they are present, your doctor will be able to determine the type of cancer and how quickly it's progressing. Pregnancy and breast cancer symptoms include dimpling of the skin, bloody discharge from the nipple, scaly skin on the breast, and unusual thickening of the breast in one area. The biggest problem associated with breast cancer and pregnancy is the delayed diagnosis.

The incidence of breast cancer during pregnancy is similar between women with and without a baby. However, the prevalence of inflammatory breast cancer is slightly higher in women with BC during pregnancy. While there is a risk of invasive breast cancer, most studies have found similar rates of inflammatory breast cancer among pregnant and nonpregnant women, ranging from 1.5% to 4.2%. Additionally, inflammatory breast cancer during pregnancy is associated with larger tumors, positive nodes, metastases, and vascular invasion. Women with PABC have higher tumor sizes and greater risk of distant metastatic disease.

While the risks of developing breast cancer are low, one in every three pregnancies includes a woman with breast cancer. While it is not common, breast cancer can develop during pregnancy because of the changing hormones in the body. However, treatment for early-stage breast cancer is complicated due to the possible impact on the developing baby. Pregnant women should learn to perform breast exams and take steps to monitor changes during the pregnancy. They should also undergo breast exams during prenatal visits.

While breast cancer can cause red, hot, and scaly skin, breast abscesses usually do not cause any pain. A lump in the breast that appears red and swollen can be a sign of invasive breast cancer. If it is invasive, the cancer has spread to other parts of the body, such as the lymph nodes. Symptoms of this type of breast cancer may be difficult to detect early in pregnancy or nursing.

MRI and chest x-rays are not dangerous for the developing baby. They use minimal radiation and do not require contrast dye. Physical exams and ultrasounds are also safe for pregnant women, but it is best to discuss the risks of a particular test with your doctor. If a suspicious lump is found, the doctor may perform an ultrasound or a biopsied. Radiation exposure is not safe during the first trimester, so radiation exposure is necessary only to determine the stage of the disease.
