A member asked:
Can you let me know how many months after treatment would breast cancer metastasize to other parts of the body?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Highly variable: Risks depend on the stage at diagnosis of the breast cancer, cell type, etc. Metastasis can occur at any time, or be even seen at the time of diagnosis in advsnced stage breast cancer. Hopefully the diagnosis was an early stage with low risk of metastasis.
