Smokers Women at Risk of Breast Cancer

2012-02-24T22:15:00.000-08:00

Smoking did not just trigger diseases related to respiratory tract. Recent studies show women smokers are at greater risk of breast cancer, especially if they are already a smoker since a young age.Although the risk is likely to be small, but 6 percent of women smokers more at risk of developing breast cancer compared with nonsmokers. Women who spend a pack of cigarettes every day over a period of 30 years the risk jumped to 28 percent.

"Smokers may not be not the main factor of breast cancer, but when we see women in the group of heavy smokers and have smoked since I was young, it becomes a serious matter," said Karin Michels, Ph.D., cancer epidemiologist and OBGYN of Harvard Medical School conducting this research.

Previous studies on the effect of smoking on breast cancer yielded a draw. Some studies concluded that smoking increases the risk, but some will not find a link.

Tobacco smoke contains thousands of materials or substances, including chemicals, gas, and droplets of tar-hatchlings. However, smoking is known to reduce levels of estrogen, one of the triggers of breast cancer. "That's why some studies found no link between smoking and breast cancer," said Michels.

In his research, Michel and his team studied 110,000 women who had 30 years as a smoker. In general, there were 8772 respondents who had breast cancer during the study period.

Those who had become smokers, at least before the first child, the risk of breast cancer is higher. Gave birth to a baby known to protect women from breast cancer, presumably this is because the changes in breast tissue.

"The risk of breast cancer is greater in periods of hormonal transitions, such as post-menopausal period premenapause and when the various changes in hormone function," said Joanne Mortimer, MD, director of the Women's Cancer Program. He was not involved in this study.

In fact, women who smoke have an increased risk of post menopasue smaller than nonsmokers to have breast cancer. This is because people who have gone through menopause, and smokers have lower estrogen levels.

Negative Effects of the Bra is Too Tight

2012-02-23T20:00:00.001-08:00

Negative Effects of the Bra is Too Tight - A bra that has a wire on the bottom can indeed contribute to better breast appearance. Breasts go up and look fuller. But then came the notion that underwire bras can cause breast cancer.

Shocking news came about the year 1995, from the research results Sidney Ross Singer and Soma Grismaijer in the United States, against 4700 women. In the book Dressed to Kill, the two scientists stated, the use of a bra associated with the incidence of breast cancer.

The head of the epidemiology of reproductive and hormonal National Cancer Institute, Louise Brinton, stating that the opinion does not make sense. Over the past 30 years conducting research in the field of cancer, he still found that the most common for the occurrence of cancer related to endogenous hormone levels.

"Indeed there has been no scientific studies about the link underwire bras or bras wearing sleeping habits, the incidence of breast cancer, so do not worry," said Dr.. Adityawati Ganggaiswari, MBiomed, from Indonesia Cancer Foundation, when contacted GHS.

Too Binding

Although his many other experts declared the results of research that is not true, until now there are many women who fear wearing underwire bras. In addition to risks associated with breast cancer that has not proven true, underwire bras can also cause another complaint if the use does not fit in the body or too tight binding to the chest.

Bra is too tight according to a study by the British School of Osteopathy can suppress the bone and muscle, so that makes it hard to breathe. Specifically for sports bras can also cause breathing difficulties if used excessively or when not exercising. That's because the sports bras are specially designed bra tighter than usual, to support the breasts in place when processing the body.

Impaired bowel movements and constipation can also occur, if we are too tight to wear a bra so that pressing the ribs.

If the bra is too tight binding of the body, can also lead to skin wounded, mainly due to the hook on a rope behind.

For those with large breasts, use a tight bra can cause problems in the area of pectoral muscles in the chest. The users can feel like a punctured or pinched in the area, and circulation problems can occur until the destruction of tissue in the breast.

Not a few women who deliberately wear a bra so tight, so that her breasts lifted and look more toned and beautiful. This habit makes trapezius muscles connecting the neck and shoulders will be strong pressure, so that it can produce pain in the shoulder, neck, and back.

The study, conducted by Dr.. Edward Ryan, as written in the Medical Journal of Australia found a link between back pain and the use of a bra that is too tight. In a two-week trial, the women who complained of back pain is recommended not wearing a bra first, or replace it with a strapless bra (strapless). The result, 79 percent of patients felt the pain is gone.

Not only underwire bras, for those who choose the flat-chested and happy bra cup containing thick foam to show the illusion of "big chest" also must be careful. Thick foam that makes the breast skin can not breathe, so it is more easily irritated or have other disorders.

So, underwire bras actually stay safe and comfortable when fitted in the body. Do not be too mengetatkannya because the breast and the muscles in our body will actually suffer.

Wearing a Bra While Sleeping, Prevents Sagging Breasts

Want to keep your breasts firm and not sagging, now and until old age? Imitate the way a TV presenter Mariella Frostrup (48), who always slept with a still wear a bra. Women's husky voice is indeed still known as the sex symbol status in a mature age.

The secret is revealed when interviewed by Mariella Easy Living magazine. In an interview, hosted BBC Radio 4 and Sky Arts, admits it is difficult to face penuaannya process. "My ambition is not to succumb to the pressure of the beauty myth. In my rational mind, we can not stay young forever. But indeed, sometimes I look in the mirror and think, 'Oh god, I can not believe my jaw could look like this. After This what else? '"said Mariella.

But the mother of two children and then admitted that he was still trying to remain attractive appearance. One of them by following the advice the late Paula Yates, a former partner Michael Hutchence (INXS lead singer), to always wear a bra when sleeping. This habit then applied, and has been going on for 15 years.

However, the habit of Mariella wearing her bra 24 hours a day was to invite debate among health experts. Experts were divided on there who agree and disagree that wearing a bra all day can prevent the aging process naturally.

"This will minimize stretching and the influence of gravity," said plastic surgeon Douglas McGeorge, but acknowledged that many women who feel uncomfortable having to sleep without removing the bra.

This view is different from the opinion of Dr. Elizabeth Vaughan, who for over 25 years advised their patients to not wear a bra.

"Breast tissue contains lymph nodes, which can not pump like the heart. Movement and the pressure helps to eliminate toxins in the whole lymph system. Anything that slows down the removal of these toxins will increase the risk of developing symptoms or disease. Bra limiting breast movement will increase congestion. Slowing cleansing toxins from the breast will also increase the number of women affected by breast disease, "he said.

It's a bit confusing, which opinion to follow. But as said Grete Braughton-Smith, a clinical care specialist at Breast Cancer Care, wearing a bra or not is more a personal choice, and more for comfort than any other factor.

Grete says, some women-particularly large-breasted is not a problem with the use of a bra day and night. For example, during pregnancy or after childbirth, the patient is always advised to wear a bra when sleeping, if they feel safer.

"There are also conditions that are not ideal to wear a bra during sleep, but the important note is brought to wear a bra all the time does not increase breast cancer risk," he said.

So, if you are uncomfortable or do not have to continue to wear a bra all day? It's all up to you. For your information, Marilyn Monroe was believed to be able to maintain the beauty of a size 36D breasts because they always wear a bra all the time.

Many of Fiber Prevent Breast Cancer

2011-09-13T21:41:00.000-07:00

Research in China has recently argued, women who consume lots of fiber are less likely suffering from breast cancer than those who ate little fiber. This research does not directly prove the fibers as lowering the risk of cancer. But, however, women who eat lots of fiber as a whole they are healthier than those who ate no fiber at all.

According to researchers from Soochow University, people who do high-fiber diet have lower levels of the hormone estrogen. The hormone estrogen is known as one risk factor for breast tumors trigger.

In his research, the researcher combines 10 previous studies that looked at dietary patterns of women. Approximately 710,000 women in this study were monitored for seven to 18 years to see their risk of cancer.

The result, it is known that as much as 2.4 percent of women experience breast cancer. However, among women who occupy the top five positions (ate the most fiber), their risk is 11 percent less likely to develop breast cancer.

Some literature recommends, women need at least 25 grams of fiber per day, while men should be adequate for 38 grams of fiber per day.

"Increasing intake of fiber is very important for public health," said a team of researchers from China to publish its findings in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

Meanwhile, Dr Eleni Linos of Stanford University, who was not involved in the study, assessing the effect of fiber consumption for cancer risk reduction is relatively small.

The same is also disclosed by Christina Clarke, scientists from the Cancer Prevention Institute of California in Fremont. "Although the relationship between breast cancer risk and very little fiber, but fiber is something we know is very unhealthy for everyone," he said.

According to Clarke, an excellent high-fiber diet in controlling cholesterol and weight loss. "However, if you find that the consumption of fiber may reduce cancer risk, it would be an added bonus," said Clarke.

How to Restore the beauty of the Breast

2011-09-13T13:11:00.000-07:00

The breast cancer patients now do not have to worry about losing the breast on the operating table. Along with the development of science and surgical technology, the operating table also offers a number of options for breast reconstruction.

Currently, breast cancer is one of the scourge for women. Together with cervical cancer, breast cancer became the biggest cause of death of women in Indonesia.

Besides can be deadly, breast cancer also brings another dilemma for women. Once a woman diagnosed with breast cancer, she was like no choice but to undergo surgical removal of cancer. That means he will miss at least the breast or breasts changed shape.

Oncology surgeon from Siloam Hospital Jakarta, Samuel J Haryono, stated, such a presumption is not entirely correct. In some cases, breast cancer patients can undergo surgery without having to lose the breast, especially in patients with early-stage cancer.

According to Samuel, when the size of malignant tumors has not reached 3 cm, patients can undergo breast conservation therapy (BCT). Namely, surgery to remove cancerous tissue and lymph nodes by maintaining the breast, nipple and areola (brown area surrounding the nipple).

Early detection plays an important role for patients. "Many patients assume that the breast should be removed all the cancer had not spread. This assumption makes the patient afraid of surgery. In fact, if detected early, tumors can be removed without lifting the entire breast tissue, "said Samuel, the end of June.

For patients who realized too late the growth of cancer cells in the breast, the options become limited. One of them, underwent breast removal surgery (mastectomy), which is surgery to remove the tumor and the entire breast tissue, nipple and areola.

Postoperatively, they can undergo breast reconstruction to reshape the breast. This is done to restore the confidence of patients.

Reconstruction

Breast reconstruction is a complex procedure that must be performed by surgeons. This can be done after surgery, where patients are still under the influence of anesthetic drugs. Still, a few patients who delayed reconstruction to restore their physical and emotional condition.

Before undergoing reconstructive surgery, according to Samuel, the patient should understand the operating procedures. Information regarding costs, risks, and postoperative recovery and follow-up care of breast reconstruction should be asked in detail to the treating doctor.

According to Samuel, the reconstruction procedure is selected based on the patient's condition. If it had not yet reached an advanced stage, doctors may do a skin sparing mastectomy. In this case, the surgeon maintains the breast skin of the patient so that the reconstruction be done immediately after removal of the cancer. There is also a procedure of nipple sparing mastectomy, removal of breast tissue to preserve the nipple and areola area.

Samuel explained, the reconstruction is done by "patching" the hollow section by taking muscle tissue and fat from the patient's body. Typically, tissue is taken from the abdominal wall or back.

If it had removed the entire breast tissue, the skin of the abdomen can be used as the breast skin. The network can also be used to form the nipple and areola.

The use of fat and muscle tissue from the patient's body is considered more practical. "Patients also felt better because it uses his own body parts," said Samuel.

However, if the former tumor cavity is too large, and patients do not have body parts that can be used, he can use breast implants. Implants containing silicone or physiological fluids, such as sodium chloride (NaCl), can be used to reconstruct the breast.

On the use of NaCl, the body will react to a minimum so that the relatively more secure. The silicon was chosen because it is elastic, resembling the human breast. Placement of silicon must be very careful so as not to cause a harmful reaction to the body.

In addition to these procedures, breast reconstruction technology continues to evolve. One of the newest is to develop stem cells that make up breast tissue. In this way, patients get back to the breast naturally. Unfortunately, the new procedure has not been done in Indonesia.

6 How to Stay Healthy Keeping Breast - Breast cancer is classified as the most dreaded diseases of women. And if you know the symptoms from an early age, her chances of developing into cancer is much lower than older women. And if the cancer is attacked, its nature will be more aggressive, according to Debra Mangino, MD, of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York.

Therefore, you need to maintain a healthy lifestyle to protect your breasts. There are several ways you can do to keep members of your body remains healthy:

1. Maintain a healthy weight

Gain weight it could increase the risk of developing breast cancer, while reducing your likelihood to survive the disease, according to Harold Freeman, MD, president and founder of the Ralph Lauren Center for Cancer and Prevention in New York City.

2. Do not be lazy to exercise

It is hard to start training, but if you do not start soon, you will not get used. Perform exercise for 45 minutes to 1 hour, 3-5 times a week. Regular exercise can help prevent this disease by boosting your immune function, get rid of obesity, and lower levels of estrogen and insulin.

3. Reduce alcohol

Many say, a little alcohol would be good for health. Apparently, it is better when applied to men. Whereas in women, research suggests that two glasses of alcohol a day may increase breast cancer risk by 21 percent. However, you can take advantage of this alcohol with a snack of fresh grapes. Resveratrol, an ingredient found in grape skins, was able to reduce estrogen levels, which could reduce the risk of developing breast cancer.

4. Eating raw broccoli

We already know what the benefits of vegetables, but still did not feel like taking them. Vegetables are able to give extra protection to the breast for example, broccoli and kale (a type of green cabbage). These vegetables contain sulforaphane, which is believed to help prevent the division of cancer cells. So that the effect is getting stronger in fighting cancer, eat in a raw state.

5. Know your family history

Women who had breast cancer does not automatically "inherit" the disease in her daughters. However, "Of the approximately 15 percent of cases of breast cancer, there is a family history of the disease," said Freeman. If you have a first degree family member who had breast cancer, your risk is increased. If there are two affected family members, your risk is increased five-fold.

6. Consult

All women should undergo clinical breast exam at least every three years, as well as mammogram examination every year since the age of 40 years. Women who have a family history of breast cancer should begin screening before age 10 years when a family member diagnosed with the disease. There is nothing to be afraid when you start it as early as possible, right?

"But overall, only 5-15 percent of patients diagnosed with liver cancer can undergo cancer surgery, because of liver function is decreased or the presence of liver cirrhosis," added Dr. Hasan Irsan.

In liver cancer patients who can not undergo cancer surgery, local ablation technique can be performed (with Percutaneus Ethanol Injection [PEI], microwave coagulation therapy [MCT], and Radiofrekuency Ablation [RFA]). What is meant by microwave coagulation therapy is heated to a temperature of 600 tumor cells so that the tumor cells die.

"TACE (Trans Arterial Chemo embolization) was used as an adjunctive therapy in patients with liver cancer that is minimally invasive. The purpose of this therapy is to shrink the tumor cells, enhance quality of life with chemotherapy and close the blood vessels that feed tumor cells, "said dr.

The methods used for early detection of colon cancer, outside biopsy, among others: endoscopy, chromoskopi, autofluorescent endoscopy, narrow band imaging, and endomicroscopy, "explained Prof. GNJ Tytgat Emerson, President of World Gastroenterology Organisation of the Netherlands.

"Therapy of colon cancer is open surgery, laparoscopic surgery (surgery using an optical fiber inserted into the patient's body. This operation allows the incision in the skin that fewer and level of care in hospital is shorter), chemotherapy, and targeted therapy , "said Dr. R. Errawan Wiradisuria.

"The success of treatment and sustained course of cancer therapy olehalat latest health. RS. Siloam MRCCC LINAC IX has had a tool for radiotherapy of cancer patient with Tehnology IMRT, which enables targeted radiation on cancer cells, supported by PET / CT as the latest technology in detecting cancer.

According to Dr Salim Abdool Karim of the Centre for AIDS Programme of Research in South Africa, the concentration of tenofovir in the vaginal tissue will be higher when administered in a gel rather than pills.

Learning from the success of contraception, are now the experts to develop tenofovir in other methods, which are easily dissolved into the lining of the vagina so that it will not look mate.

Michael Baum Breast cancer experts say that staying in breast fat is generally as much as that found on the thighs and buttocks. "We are experiencing an epidemic of obesity, so the increased breast size in women is not surprising," said Baum.

2. Hormone

However, many slim women with large breasts. According to Bravissimo research, most women they encountered 'slender with big breasts'. This indicates that breast enlargement is not a mere matter of fat.

Marilyn Glenville, a specialist in women's health and hormones revealed her side watching things that stimulate breast tissue growth. "The reason is that estrogen, the female sex hormone," she said.

According to Glenville, women who experience estrogen surge as they reach puberty early, had few children and rarely breast-feeding.

"The number of women postpone pregnancy and have few children, they experience more monthly cycle (period) compared to previous generations. That is why they are exposed to more estrogen, "says Glenville.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for menopausal women and the contraceptive pill affects breast size as well.

Pesticides, plastics and cosmetics could also affect the size of the bra. Exposed to canned food products, beverage cans and plastic bottles that contain bisphenol A (BPA), may also hold the role in breast size enlargement. Xenoestrogens reported an impact on sperm and fertility, as well as potentially affecting women as well. The proof can be found on the bra size.

"Apply a moisturizer to the skin and direct contact with the skin of the breast can stimulate breast tissue growth," says Glenville.

Milk could be a contributor on increase breast size. The report states that approximately two-thirds of Britons drank milk from pregnant cows, which contains high levels of estrogen and other hormones.

Women who have large breasts may experience chronic back pain and other discomfort in everyday life. Although many women who visit a surgeon for breast augmentation, but not a few also who want to reduce their breast size through surgery.

"There are women who have breast size or less proportionate to his body. But they are now more willing to seek help. I met women who generally complain about physical pain and psychological discomfort with large breasts, "said Dr. Puneet Gupta, a plastic surgeon.

An aircraft engineer born in Newport, Texas, United States, Ir. N.O. Brantly states, such as aircraft, the human body are also affected by the law of gravity. Body parts were especially prominent and not supported, for example by muscle or bone. Bulge in question is the breast.

Their opinions are justified Dr. Melissa S. Luwia, MHA, from Indonesia Cancer Foundation. Because the salient and had no muscles, the gravitational force is badly affected breast. That is why, hang it (suspension) of this organ must be supported by specific tools. This tool is what we call a bra, breast buffer, or BH (breast holder).

3. There is no buffer. Familiarize yourself with no bra will cause the slack, especially when relatively large breast size.

4. Bad habits. Sleep on can make sagging breasts. This can be explained by the theory of gravity. On the bed side, there is no supporting breast at all, except by the BH. In contrast to sleep on their backs, because the breast is supported by the body.

5. Disease. Diseases such as TB (tuberculosis) or breast cancer could result in a small, loose, or fall. This is because the viruses that destroy malignant cells and organs.

6. Poor nutrition. Although consumption of nutritious food is more useful to tighten the skin, this factor is very important. Diseases such as tuberculosis or cancer may arise from lack of nutrition. Foods such as cabbage, soybeans, tempeh, soy milk, and garlic are very good for preventing breast cancer.

7. Harsh treatment. Every inch of our body must be treated gently, especially breast. Harsh treatment such as wringing too strong, so define the beauty of the breast. Also when we use the bra that makes breasts pressed, squeezed, and others.

How to Select a Sport Bra

2011-03-08T21:49:00.000-08:00

Everyone has a pair of legs. However, women have additional breast is no less important to be protected when exercising. For that created a special bra called a sports bra.

Why dedicated? Joanna Scurr, the head of the research group about breast health from the University of Portsmouth, England, said the vests that we use everyday can only support the breast in a vertical motion, but can not control the movement in the opposite direction.

"Ideally, different activities require different support also," Scurr said. He pointed out, when playing tennis, going to the upper body rotation, causing a sideways movement of the breast. Meanwhile, the movement of basketball tends to be more vertical.

Because that's just like sport shoe store that has its own measurement system, now in the United States in which many clothing stores have a special measurement method for choosing a sports bra according to the type of sport that will be occupied.

Vaginal ecosystem is a circle of life that is influenced by two main elements, namely estrogen and the bacteria Lactobacillus, or good bacteria. Here, estrogen plays a role in determining the levels of sugars as energy savings in the cell body (glycogen).

Glycogen is the nutrition of Lactobacillus, which is metabolized to its growth. Time metabolism and produce lactic acid, which determines the atmosphere of acid in the vagina, with the potential Hydrogen (pH) ranged from 3.8 to 4.2. With this level of acidity, Lactobacillus will be fertile and pathogenic bacteria (bad) will die.

In the vagina there are various kinds of bacteria, 95 percent of Lactobacillus, 5 percent of the pathogens. In a balanced vaginal ecosystem conditions, pathogenic bacteria will not interfere. If the balance is disturbed, eg acidity decreases, the natural defense also will go down, and vulnerable to infection. The imbalance of the vaginal ecosystem caused by many factors.

All women produce acetic acid, but it also produces a third of the short chain aliphatic acids. The series of short aliphatic acids, which includes asetik, propionic, isovaleric, isobutryc, propanoic, and butanoic acid. All the acid is a sharp level of chemicals produced by other primate species as a signal of touch / smell sexual. Although no one has ever proved the role of these acids in the rules of the relationship in humans, some researchers consider this a copullins and pheromones in humans.
