Research Interest

Once a woman begins her ovarian function during puberty, there are limited things she can do to reduce her risk of developing breast cancer. Interruptions in the menstrual cycle will reduce risk. The earlier and the more frequently she interrupts her menstrual cycle, the greater reduction in risk of breast cancer. This includes full-term pregnancy, prolonged breast feeding, steady and continuous physical activity, and maintaining a low and healthy body weight.
