How to ban breast cancer? will large breast cause it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No size correlation: Other than for the 5-10 % of women with genetic mutations, breast cancer is derived from exogenous sources. The MMTV virus and other viruses such as EBV have a strong association . These viral infections into mucosal cells of the breast cant be controlled by diet or exposure. When the virus enters the duct epithelium it causes a transformation in WNT-1 gene regardless of breast size
