While less than 1% of new breast cancer diagnoses occur among men, it is still a possibility for men to develop the disease. Of the approximate 40,230 deaths from breast cancer this year, an estimated 390 of them will be men. For males, the lifetime risk of getting breast cancer is about 1/10th of 1%.
Although the odds are not overwhelming for men, it is important to focus on what causes this disease and join the mission to end breast cancer.
We are dedicated to ending breast cancer through the power of grassroots action and advocacy.
No more myths. I commit to telling the people I know and love the truth about breast cancer.
