It is projected that over 2,500 new cases of male breast cancer will be diagnosed and over 400 men will die from the disease. The percentage fatality rate is often higher for men diagnosed with breast cancer as usually no one is checking and men don’t notice the symptoms of male breast cancer as they are not even aware they can be diagnosed with breast cancer. Men also do not have the options women may with breast conserving surgery/treatment and so mastectomy is most often performed due to the limited amount of tissue. Just imagine hearing the words as a man, or a woman about her father, husband, son or any loved one; Sir, You Have Breast Cancer! Breast cancer doesn’t just affect sisters and daughter’s, breast cancer affects sons and brothers. In addition with the current awareness of the BRCA gene mutation it’s important to note that 50% of the worlds BRCA (breast cancer susceptibility gene) carriers are male which are also known factors in the cause of Prostate, Pancreatic, Melanoma and Ovarian as well as many other cancers.
HIS Breast Cancer Awareness was formed in 2010 as a fully credited nonprofit 501©3 organization to bring education, awareness, prevention and support to anyone dealing with Male Breast Cancer or having a family member with a history of Breast Cancer.
We know that we have already saved men’s lives and with your support, we can reach so many more!
Please consider choosing HIS Breast Cancer Awareness as your charity to give and support this #GivingTuesday and through the holidays.
