Breast cancer has become a serious health concern in India. According to recent studies, it is now the Number 1 cancer among Indian women. This alarming fact calls for greater awareness, early detection, and proper treatment. At LaproPod in Tirunelveli, we are committed to spreading awareness and offering advanced treatment options for breast cancer.

Why Is Breast Cancer on the Rise in India?

Several factors contribute to the increasing cases of breast cancer in Indian women. These include:

  • Changing lifestyle patterns

  • Delayed childbirth

  • Lack of physical activity

  • Obesity

  • Family history of breast cancer

  • Poor awareness about self-examination

Sadly, many women are diagnosed at a later stage because they ignore the early warning signs. This makes treatment more difficult and affects survival rates.

The Importance of Early Detection

Early detection of breast cancer can save lives. When caught early, breast cancer is highly treatable. Regular breast self-examinations, clinical check-ups, and mammograms can help detect abnormalities at an early stage.

At LaproPod Tirunelveli, we encourage women to:

  • Perform monthly self-examinations

  • Go for annual clinical breast exams

  • Undergo screening mammograms after the age of 40, or earlier if they have a family history

Common Symptoms of Breast Cancer

It is important to know the signs of breast cancer. If you notice any of the following, consult a doctor immediately:

  • A new lump or mass in the breast or underarm

  • Swelling or thickening in part of the breast

  • Change in breast size or shape

  • Dimpling or puckering of the skin

  • Nipple discharge (other than breast milk)

  • Redness or flaky skin around the nipple

  • Pain in the breast or nipple

  • Maintain a healthy weight

  • Be physically active

  • Eat a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables

  • Limit alcohol consumption
