Healthcare Providers
Early onset breast cancer, defined as breast cancer occurring in women under the age of 45, accounts for approximately 10% of new breast cancer cases in the United States. Younger women tend to experience more aggressive disease, higher risk of recurrence and death, and more long-term survivorship issues than older women.
This course covers factors that contribute to increased risk for early onset breast cancer, including genetic and racial/ethnic risk factors, breast density, family history, and prior health history.
