The Correlation Between Induced Abortion and the Prevalence of Breast Cancer

Breast cancer is one of the most significant public health challenges confronting women worldwide. The incidence rate of Breast cancer is growing fast, especially in Asian countries, caused by changes in lifestyle and reproductive risk factors. Risk factors associated with breast cancer are categorized into modifiable or lifestyle risk factors, which are amenable to prevention, and non-modifiable risk factors. Consequently, an enhanced understanding of breast cancer risk factors could facilitate better preventive strategies against this malignancy. Therefore, awareness of Breast cancer risk factors could improve the prevention of this cancer. Induced abortion is the most common surgical procedure performed on females of child-bearing age, including adolescent women. The association of some factors with induced abortion is still controversial and unclear. This study aimed to evaluate this association based on previous studies.
