What other advice would you give to women? Support is so important whenever any of us hits a scary part in ours lives. When my mother had breast cancer about 11 years ago, I was able to be there for her, provide encouragement and share my knowledge. And the more informed you are, the more helpful your support is. Having a record of your previous mammograms is also very important so doctors can more easily detect any changes in the breast.

At least 150 minutes of moderate exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise each week (or some combination of the two) is recommended. Watch How Much Alcohol You Drink: For women who have one drink a day, there is only a small increase in the risk for breast cancer compared to non-drinkers. However, when a woman has 2 to 5 drinks each day, her risk becomes 1½ times greater.
