Is it possible to develop breast cancer at 17?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Extremely rare: ...But not impossible. The youngest person in the U.S. To be diagnosed was a 10 yr old girl. She presented with an itch of her breast and her mom noticed the lump. http://www.ocregister.com/articles/hannah-317453-cancer-breast.html bottom line, get teen checked by doctor if you are concerned!
