The findings were researched by the World Health Organization and published in the International Journal of Cancer, which categorized the processed meat as a carcinogen, finding that eating it can cause not just breast cancer, but several types of cancer. However, there are other, more important, factors for determining risk including: family history, age, race and reproductive history.

King studied more than 1,500 families in which multiple members were affected by breast cancer.

She had a double mastectomy in October 2014, which was difficult because October is breast cancer awareness month - "It was hard for me because it was pink, pink, pink", she said.

"They're offering T-shirts, and funds will be split between breast cancer research and the cheer and pom squads", said David Bookout, TMS principal. In fact, aging is probably the largest risk factor for breast cancer, with most breast cancers found in women age 50 and up.

But still there was skepticism about her mathematical model, so King set out to show the existence of a breast cancer gene by locating it using linkage analysis. It is estimated that approximately 30 percent of newly diagnosed cancers in women this year will be breast cancers. Yet, currently, Medicare only covers two: "the most basic - off-the-shelf breast prostheses - and the most comprehensive - reconstruction", Rep. Chu said.

Breast cancer symptoms can vary from person to person.

With these estimates in mind, a woman now has a 1 in 8 chance of developing breast cancer in her lifetime.

So women will know, 'Hey, I've got to look after my health. There are also parent-teacher conferences that evening from 4-7 p.m. - and those will continue on Friday morning - but parents can come by Thursday for both if they want.

Cowboys across the country and in Canada are wearing pink these days in an effort to combat breast cancer.

Regular mammograms are the best tests doctors have to find breast cancer early sometimes up to three years before it can be felt and patients do not need a doctor's prescription to schedule your appointment. Every year, around 40,000 women die of this disease and every 9th woman is at high risk.
