I'm a 27 y.o male. if my paternal grandma had breast cancer (treated 12 years ago, still alive), does that increase my cancer risk?

Good question: from a guy , genetic implications are more to female Male breast cancers are rare 1% of them are in men ( male breast cancer ) At 27 don't worry about any cancer , eat health balanced diet with regular exercises avoid any chemicals ( substance abuse ) and be happy .
