Genetics are becoming integral to personalized patient care. Genetic counselors can help patients understand family history impact, genetic testing results and support them as they make medical decisions based on their genetic risks. #GeneticCounseling #Genetics #HealthLiteracy

Family history plays a crucial role in breast cancer risk. Having a first-degree relative diagnosed nearly doubles the risk, especially if multiple relatives are affected or diagnosed under 50. #BreastCancerAwareness #EarlyDetectionSavesLives #GeneticTesting

By increasing awareness about liver cancer, providing advocacy to those affected, and improving health literacy, we can call attention to this disease and support diagnosed individuals. #LiverCancerAwareness #CancerSupport #CancerAwareness

The liver, one of the largest organs, filters harmful substances from the blood, produces bile that helps digest fats, and stores sugar that the body uses for energy. With liver cancer, viral and environmental risk factors can increase the likelihood of disease development.

About 30% of new US women cancer cases are breast cancer; 5-10% linked to BRCA1/2 mutations, with up to 72% (BRCA1) and 69% (BRCA2) lifetime risk. Hereditary Cancer Risk screening can detect mutations. 🔗Learn more: ow.ly/kkrt50Q1zJB #BreastCancerAwareness #HereditaryCancer

Breast cancer affects men too. A BRCA mutation gives men a 1 in 20 chance of developing it. Those with a family history should consider Hereditary Cancer Risk Screening to detect BRCA mutations early. Learn more: ow.ly/34n150Q0PLG #BreastCancerAwareness #BreastCancerSupport

Talking about the importance of early detection is key to empowering individuals to make informed decisions about their health. #BreastCancerAwareness #EarlyDetectionSavesLives #BreastCancerSupport

The National Foundation for Cancer Research encourages women to not only undergo their regular screenings but to also discuss with their doctor about what screening interval is best for them.

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we want to emphasize the importance of women prioritizing their routine screenings. Regular mammograms can find breast cancer early, sometimes up to three years before it can be felt!

Understanding if you have an increased hereditary risk of breast cancer can aid in early detection. #BreastCancerAwareness #EarlyDetectionSavesLives #BreastCancerSupport

When breast cancer is caught in its earliest, localized stages, the 5-year relative survival rate is 99%. Advances in early detection and treatment methods have significantly increased breast cancer survival rates in recent years.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. About 13% of women in the United States will develop invasive breast cancer in her lifetime. You’re likely to know at least one person who has been personally affected by breast cancer.
