A member asked:
For what length of time can you live with untreated breast cancer and have no symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Years: Breast cancers are usually present for years before being found. They may produce a mass and no other symptoms until very advanced. This is part of the rational behind screening. If found when small, there is an excellent chance at a cure. If found after a long existence, cures are more difficult.
