Let’s not forget the men. Breast cancer isn’t exclusively a women’s disease. Around 1% of all breast cancer cases occur in men, with approximately 20,000 men diagnosed worldwide each year. Awareness matters for everyone, particularly as many men don’t even realise they’re at risk
Breast cancer remains the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women & leading cause of cancer death among women globally. In 2024, an estimated 2.4 million women were diagnosed & 694,000 died from the disease: uicc.org/what-we-do/thematic…
