Yesterday we wrote about the fact that many women are not able to withstand the six months recommended by WHO breastfeeding , Which is why feel guilty and even inferior. The scientists offer young mothers even more difficult task. Canadian researchers believe that if a woman is breastfeeding a baby for a year, then it will reduce her risk of developing breast cancer to third.
And it is to the fair sex, which went to "fatal" gene BRCA1, in which the probability to be ill breast cancer three out of four. In most cases, doctors recommend these women to undergo a double mastectomy for preventive. Now it turns out that there is a less traumatic way to reduce the risk of developing the disease.
But women with the BRCA2 gene for such a long time breast feeding It does not help in the prevention of cancer. This suggests that the ways in which these two gene cause breast tumor, differ. As young mothers, not wearing any "rock" of genes, in the case of breast feeding reduces the risk of breast cancer by 4, 3%.
In a study of Canadian scientists participated 6 000 women with the genes BRCA1 or BRCA2, while half have been diagnosed with breast cancer. Women picked up the most similar to each other, including the number of births, age and body weight, which allowed for 1665 pairs for analysis. Cancer victims breastfed, on average, two months shorter than the healthy women. It was found that breastfeeding reduces the risk of developing the disease by 32%. If you continue to feed the baby two or more years, the risk is reduced by half.
