Nursery nurse Charlotte Thomson, now 21, of Newcastle upon Tyne, had regular periods and was still slipping into her size 8 dresses in the nine months before she gave birth - she had no idea she was expecting. It wasn't until she took herself to hospital with bleeding and painful stomach cramps that medics told her she was nine months pregnant and in labour. Daughter Molly arrived two hours later.

(Dense breasts are made up of mostly fat and contain little fibrous and glandular tissue) You can't tell by the look or feel. Its something that can only be picked up on x-ray tomography where dense breasts look whiter, and less dense ones darker. In some countries such as the UK, this characteristics has been largely ignored, but that might change after recent research in the U.S showed that breast density isn't only a major risk factor for breast cancer, for some women, its the most important one. The largest study that's ever been done with over 18,000 breast cancer cases, and over 200,000 woman, by and large, breast density was the most important risk factor whether you were pre-menopausal, or postmenopausal. Breast density accounted for over a third of breast cancers in a pre-menopausal woman and in post-menopausal woman it was 26%. Other risk factors such as family history of breast cancer. Less than 10% of breast cancer develops because of having those risk factors. Breast density is primarily determined by genetics. Its estimated that 45% - 60% of breast density is herdable. The other 45% of breast density can be modified. What modifies it the most is ageing, breastfeeding, tamoxifen or drug used to prevent breast cancer can reduce breast density.

Issie Lowe, 21, said medics mistook the agonising symptoms she had suffered since she was a teen for period pains. She was finally told she had endometriosis. It sees tissue behave like the womb lining and grow somewhere else in the body including the bowel, bladder and ovaries, causing internal bleeding. She hopes treatment will ease the incurable condition and aims to raise awareness.

This is similar to someone who has a sore throat. Their throat is sore but it is not known what is causing that particular symptom. It could be allergies, strep throat, or a common cold. Similarly, when someone has dementia they are experiencing symptoms without being told what is causing those symptoms. alzheimers.net.TOWP Healthhttp://theonlywayproductions.blogspot.co.uk/2017/04/latest-health-statistics-health-quotes.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4523343639510307686.post-2677158636415027672018-04-02T03:24:05.544-07:002018-04-02T03:24:05.544-07:00April 2, 2018.
