The Risk Of Breast Cancer Metastasis Is 50% Higher Among Women Diagnosed Within Five Years Of Childbirth, According To New Postpartum Study

The study confirmed this and found higher rates of breast cancer metastasis among women who were diagnosed within five years of giving birth.

“It’s a two-hit problem. Involution causes early tumor cells to get out of the breast. And those cancer cells find the liver to be a great host to establish metastatic tumors,” Schedin explained.

So now, the team is adamant that postpartum status be factored into clinicians’ screenings and breast cancer treatment approaches in order to best predict prognosis.
