I've read that there is a connection between the use of antibiotics and breast cancer.
antibiotics have no carcinogens (chemical that can cause gene mutation and cancer) so its not possible they can cause cancer in themselves. however prolonged use can cause your immune system to become too used to having antibiotics do the work and so become weak meaning your body is less able to combat free radicals in the body and viruses that can cause cancer.
my advice: use antibiotics if you need too and use them for the duration of the course. but don't take them if you don't need to. consult your doctor and ask him about this.

âLife is a Carnival,â a bold approach to mastectomy and breast cancer reconstruction education, is a 14-month calendar featuring photos of women who had breast reconstruction after mastectomy and those who didnât. The calendar is published by Facing Our Risk of Cancer Empowered (FORCE), the only national nonprofit organization for families affected by hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. âMore than just a calendar, âLife is a Carnivalâ is an intimate collection of real women courageously sharing their bodies and their experiences to help others understand their choices,â said Sue Friedman, FORCE Executive Director. âOur calendar celebrates life after mastectomy. As these photos attest, life after mastectomyâ with or without reconstructionâdoes go on.â
Mastectomies are performed to treat various types of breast cancer. Increasingly, more womenâincluding very young womenâwith a family history of the disease are choosing preventative (or prophylactic) mastectomies to reduce their lifetime risk of developing breast cancer, which can be as high as 85 percent. Choosing the best way to reconstruct breasts after mastectomy, or whether to reconstruct them at all, can be confusing and overwhelming. âLife is a Carnivalâ provides a unique way to explore options, consider different restorative techniques and make informed decisions when it comes to mastectomy reconstruction. âToday, women have many options for reconstructive surgery after mastectomy,â said PRMAâs Dr. Minas Chrysopoulo. âWeâre proud to sponsor âLife is a Carnivalâ, a tool that helps women understand what is possible so they can make their own informed decisions.â
PRMA plastic surgeons Drs. Peter Ledoux, Chet Nastala, Steven Pisano, and Minas Chrysopoulo specialize in all aspects of cosmetic surgery and breast reconstruction after mastectomy, with a special emphasis on advanced microsurgical techniques using the patientâs own tissue. Their preferred reconstructive technique is the DIEP flap (Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator flap) Rapid Exchange movie
The DIEP procedure is the new âgold standardâ in breast cancer reconstruction and is associated with less postoperative pain and a shorter hospital stay and recovery than the conventional TRAM flap procedure. Another major benefit of the DIEP flap procedure is that it prevents the loss of abdominal muscle strength usually associated with TRAM flap reconstruction. Experience is an essential factor for this technically demanding surgery; PRMA performs over 300 DIEP flap breast reconstructions per year.
The âLife is a Carnivalâ calendar is available from the FORCE website.

News story about using hyperthermia as a treatment for breast cancer.Hyperthermia therapy is a treatment used in battling cancer by heating tumors. The Heating is about as warm as a hot tub. Research has shown that heat can damage or kill cancer cells in some tumors while also making radiation and chemotherapy more effective. While it has been known for hundreds of years that fevers can kill cancer, only recently has technology been developed that can control and focus heat specifically on …

Breast cancer affects one in eight women during their lifetime; incredibly, it is estimated that just over a million people throughout the world - women and men alike - will be diagnosed during this year alone. Just as incredibly, in this same year, nearly 43,000 people will die in the United States. The statistics are sobering; not just for their sheer volume but because it does not have to claim as many victims as it does. In many cases, it can be beaten. But fighting the battle means early detection and comprehensive treatment.
Breast cancer - the most common cancer among women - continues to be diagnosed on a daily basis as more and more people learn to read the signs and symptoms of this disease and seek early medical intervention. During this early intervention, doctors will work with each patient to determine the best possible treatment - as determined by the type and stage of the cancer as well as the overall physical health of the patient.
Technological advancements in treatment continue to bring new and exciting options to the table; but when you are suddenly thrust into the position of having to make a decision about treatment, the choices can seem overwhelming.
One choice is surgery, wherein the cancerous growth is removed from the breast - also know as a lumpectomy. In more severe cases - or as a preventative measure - a partial or total mastectomy, or removal of part, or all, of the breast, may be performed.
But aside from surgery, there are also many other choices including, chemotherapy - a frequent course of intravenous drugs used to stop the growth of the cancer; radiation - using pinpoint radiation therapy to kill cancer cells; and hormonal therapy to stop the growth of cancer cells. In many cases, however, breast cancer treatment utilizes a combination of many different therapies in order to achieve the greatest possibility for success.
In some cases, patients also choose to incorporate holistic therapies into their treatment. Such therapies may include diet, exercise, therapeutic massage, and acupuncture.
Early treatment is the key to ongoing health and survival - increasing a patient’s chance of recovery and five year survival rate by nearly 95%. With such dramatic statistics at hand, it’s no wonder that doctors aggressively promote any and all methods of early detection including self-examination, routine gynecological exams, mammograms, and breast ultrasound.
The most important thing to remember is that new treatments continue to be aggressively researched. And what has resulted are new and less invasive treatment options for patients. If breast cancer has affected you or someone in your life, it is important to stay educated on research findings.
The battle continues to be waged by women on a daily basis. As more and more women are incorporating self-examination and routine gynecological exams into their lives, the access to early breast cancer treatment grows exponentially. And as those who have been affected can attest, early diagnosis and treatment saves lives.
