Luo and Margolis analysis of data from 80 000 women aged 50 to 79 years.that data came from women's health initiative observational study 1993-98i patients with 40 clinics around the United States ten years after the data were taken, 3250 women developed cases of invasive breast cancer.
The research shows that smokers 16% higher risk of developing cancer in the breast, compared with women who never smoked. former smokers have an average of 9% increase in risk of breast cancer, but the risk was worse for women who smoked after their teenage years, or longer even 20 years after the woman stops smoking or 50 years, the risk remains abovethan average risk of breast cancer.
Some of the women in this study had never smoked, but was exposed to secondhand smoke. those who were subjected to extensive exposure to passive smoking in the 10 years to 20 years, childhood, adult at home, or 10 years as an adult in the workplace have excess lifetime risk of breast cancer. 32% so if yours is one of the parents who smoked when you were a kid, or the spouse or partner smoked at home or colleagues who smoked around you at work, they have not done you any favors.
Dr. Margolis Karen thinks we all be healthy, if neither of us smoked in every stage of life. "our findings highlight the need for intervention to prevent the onset of smoking, especially at an early age and to promote tobacco use at all ages. the bottom line: no smoking and no smoking, and get help to stop smoking, lower than average risk of breast cancer is the only one of the advantageswho do you get when you stop smoking, there's lots more good stuff about refraining from smoke.
