Can you share any studies? I hear about this anecdotally but have not found research on it.
Thank you!!

I’m not great at copying links on my iPad. Two articles I read were on VeryWell.com and Breastcancer.org. There are several others.

I send you a hug and I hope some additional information. I had breast cancer at 36, I am now 92. My breast was removed in 1968 and the second one two years later (no cancer). I did not receive radiation, chemo, Tamoxifin etc. None of this was available at this time. My tumor was approximately 2 inchs and I do not know anything further about it. Biopsies did not have or report this type of information. They removed 14 lymphs nodes all of which were negative for cancer. But here Iam, and I am sure you will be writing to someone at the same age. Stop worrying, you have a lifetime ahead of you. Smile and enjoy every moment of it.
