A member asked:
Can you please explain why all the focus for cancer is on breast cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Common: Breast cancer is the most common cause of cancer in women. The movement for awareness and advocacy is because women spoke up and made it a front page issue (thanks to nancy brinker from komen). Every cause needs a champion to create a movement. There are many other cancers that could use a champion.
