Breastfeeding and Breast Cancer: Myths and Facts
Breastfeeding has many health benefits for both mother and infant but, many women find breastfeeding a challenging process. And breast cancer can make it more complicated.
Here are some common myths and facts about breastfeeding and breast cancer. 
Myth 1: Breastfeeding reduce mother’s risk of developing breast cancer
True! Breastfeeding women will have less exposure to hormones that increase the risk of breast cancer and hence less risk of breast cancer. 
Read more: Does breastfeeding lowers your risk of breast cancer?
Myth 2.: Woman can get breast cancer while breastfeeding
It's rare but there are some cases of breast cancer while breastfeeding. Hence breastfeeding women should pay attention to the suspicious lump that needs medical attention. 
Myth 3: Breastfeeding women can get a mammogram
It is possible to get a mammogram while breastfeeding. But sometimes results may be false-positive as breast tissue is denser during breastfeeding. Therefore breast cancer specialists often recommend imaging and biopsy. 
Myth 4: Breastfeeding is not possible after breast cancer
It is possible to do breastfeeding after breast cancer treatment with proper consultation with a doctor. It can be decided based on the treatment taken.  Because therapies like chemotherapy, hormone therapy and anaesthesia administered during surgery, can affect a woman’s milk supply or negatively impact the baby. Hence it is necessary to ask your cancer doctor whether you can do breastfeeding or not.
Myth 5: If you have lump in breast while breastfeeding, it can be sign of breast cancer
Many breastfeeding women notice breast lumps that are non-cancerous and are no cause for concern.
However, a woman should contact a breast cancer doctor if:
breast lump does not go away     and grow in size
pressing it does not make it     move within the breast tissue
or it is causing the skin to     dimple or to resemble orange peel

 महिलांमध्ये स्तनाच्या कर्करोगाविषयी (Breast Cancer) अधिक गैरसमज निर्माण झाले आहेत. विशेषतः हॉलीवूडमधील प्रसिद्ध अभिनेत्री अँजेलिना जोली हिने स्तन काढून टाकण्याची शस्त्रक्रिया केल्यानंतर तर तरुण मुलींमध्ये स्तनाच्या कर्करोगाविषयी (Breast Cancer) एकीकडे जनजागृती झाली, पण दुसरीकडे अनेक गैरसमजही पसरले.
महिलांनी कर्करोग तज्ज्ञांचा (Cancer Specialists) सल्ला घेतल्यास त्यांच्या मनातील अनेक गैरसमज दूर होऊ शकतात. उदाहरणार्थ, वैद्यकीय क्षेत्रात झालेल्या प्रगतीमुळे आता पूर्वीप्रमाणे कर्करोग झालेला स्तन पूर्णपणे काढून टाकण्याची गरज नसते. ट्युमरचा आकार लहान असेल तर स्तन संवर्धनाची शस्त्रक्रिया (Breast Conservation Surgery) करता येते. तसेच, ट्युमरचा आकार मोठा असला तरी केमोथेरपी च्या मदतीने स्तन संवर्धनाच्या शस्त्रक्रियेत यश मिळते. प्लास्टिक सर्जरी तसेच कृत्रिम स्तनांचाही (Breast Reconstruction) पर्यायही उपलब्ध आहे. मुळे महिलांनी घाबरून न जाता तज्ज्ञ डॉक्टरांच्या मदतीने उपचारांची पद्धत निवडण्याची गरज असते.
तुम्ही काय करू शकता
वयाच्या ३० वर्षा र दर महिन्याला स्वतःच स्वतःच्या स्तनाची तपासणी ठरावीक वेळेला व पद्धतीने करा
वयाच्या ४० वर्षांनंतर मॅमोग्राफी (Mammography) (स्तनाचा एक्स-रे) दरवर्षी करून घ्या
तज्ज्ञ डॉक्टरांमार्फत क्लिनिकल तपासणी करून घ्या
स्तन संवर्धन शस्त्रक्रिया (Breast Conservation Surgery), आँकोप्लास्टिक ब्रेस्ट सर्जरी (Oncoplastic Breast Surgery), फ्लॅप रिकन्स्ट्रक्शन (Flap Reconstruction), इम्प्लांट     (Implant), सेंटिनल लिंफ नोड बायोप्सी (Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy) यासह उपलब्ध अनेक पर्यायांपैकी एक पर्याय डॉक्टरांच्या सल्ल्याने निश्चित करा
या लक्षणांकडे दुर्लक्ष करू नका!
वेदना न होणारी गाठ स्तनात आढळणे, काखेतही गाठी होऊ शकतात
काळपट वा लालसर रंगाचा स्राव स्तनातून बाहेर पडणे
स्तन दुखणे, कडक आणि लालसर होणे
स्तनाग्रांच्या बाजूची त्वचा सुरकुतलेल्या प्रमाणे दिसणे
स्तनाच्या कर्करोगाचा वाढता धोका
एक लाख महिलांमध्ये २५.८ महिला स्तनाच्या कर्करोगाने बाधित.
एक लाखापैकी १२.७ महिला दगावतात (केंद्रीय आरोग्य मंत्रालयाने दिलेल्या माहितीनुसार)

Prolife Cancer Center : Pancreatic Cancer Treatment
Pancreatic Cancer is cancer which starts in the organ behind the lower part of the stomach (pancreas – gland located deep in the abdomen, between the stomach and the spine). It begins when abnormal cells in the pancreas grow and divide out of control and form a tumor. It helps to makes enzymes for digestion and hormones which could control blood sugar levels.
In the majority of cases, symptoms develop after the growth of pancreatic cancer.
Signs of Pancreatic Cancer may include:
Jaundice (yellow eyes, Light-colored or greasy     stools, Dark urine, itchy skin)
Belly(abdomen) pain or back pain
Weight loss and poor appetite (bloating)
Nausea and vomiting
Gallbladder or liver enlargement
Blood clots
Diabetes
Your pancreatic cancer treatment at Prolife may include one or more of the following therapies:
Surgery
Whipple procedure: A surgical method in which the head of the pancreas, the     gallbladder, part of the stomach, part of the small intestine, and the     bile duct are removed. Enough of the pancreas is left to produce digestive     juices and insulin.
Total pancreatectomy: This surgery removes the whole pancreas, part of the stomach, part     of the small intestine, the common bile duct, the gallbladder, the spleen,     and nearby lymph nodes.
Distal pancreatectomy: Operation to remove pancreas body and the tail. The spleen may also     be removed if cancer has spread to the spleen.
  If cancer has grown and cannot be removed, the following types of palliative surgery may be done to relieve symptoms and improve quality of life:  
Biliary bypass: If cancer is obstructing the bile duct and bile is building up in     the gallbladder, a biliary bypass may be done. During this operation, the     doctor will cut the gallbladder or bile duct in the area before the     blockage and sew it to the small intestine to create a new pathway around     the blocked area.
Endoscopic stent placement: If the tumor blocks the bile duct, an operation may be done to put     in a stent (a thin tube) to drain bile that has built up in the area. The     surgeon may place the stent through a catheter that drains the bile into a     bag on the outside of the body or the stent may go around the blocked area     and drain the bile into the small intestine.
Gastric bypass: If the tumor blocks the flow of food from the stomach, the stomach     may be sewn directly to the small intestine so the patient can continue to     eat normally.
2. Chemotherapy Systemic Chemotherapy : drugs are used to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. When chemotherapy is taken by mouth or injected into a vein or muscle, the drugs enter the bloodstream and can reach cancer cells throughout the body.   Regional Chemotherapy : drugs are placed directly into the cerebrospinal fluid, an organ, or a body cavity such as the abdomen, the drugs mainly affect cancer cells in those areas. Combination chemotherapy : Uses more than one anticancer drug. The way the chemotherapy is given depends on the type and stage of the cancer being treated.
Targeted therapy
It is type of treatment that uses drugs or different machines to identify and attack specific cancer cells without harming normal cells.
Radiation therapy
It uses high-energy x-rays or other types of radiation to kill cancer cells or keep them from growing. There are two types of radiation therapy:
External radiation therapy : A machine outside the body send a radiation toward cancer.
Internal radiation therapy : radioactive substance sealed in needles, seeds, wires, or catheters     that are placed directly into or near cancer.
 Both depends on the type and stage of the cancer being treated.  Healing from Surgery Most people who have pancreatic cancer surgery heal without any problems. These people go home within 2-to-4 days. A fewer number of patients may have a slower recovery and need to wait for a little more. A surgeon will give you guidance on how to take care of yourself, including your surgery, bathing, driving, and sexual activity. There will be information about yourself:
Diet
Exercise
Pain medicine
Bowel movements
After Treatment, you will be given a Daily Goals Checklist. Use that checklist to understand how you are doing every day.
