As the word is “Breast” so most of the people think that Breast Cancer happens in women only but you are wrong! It happens in men also. But as compared to women cases of breast cancer in men are less.
Men have a small amount of breast tissue. The “breasts” of an adult man are similar to the breasts of a girl before puberty. The difference is in girls, this tissue grows and develops, but in men, it doesn’t.
It also means tumors can spread more quickly to surrounding tissues. It’s rare for a man under age 35 to get breast cancer. A man’s chance of getting breast cancer goes up with age. Most breast cancers happen to men between ages 60 and 70.
