Breast Cancer (Asia)

Video is Loading...

The female breast consists of milk glands and ducts surrounded by stromal tissue and fat. When the cells lining the ducts and glands grow in an uncontrolled manner, breast cancer is formed.

Breast cancer can be treated and has a good chance of cure when the cancer is confined within the duct and glands. However, when the cancer invades into the stromal tissue, it becomes an invasive cancer.

These 'Speaking from Experience' video clips offer first-hand accounts from eight people living with Breast Cancer. They discuss the impact it has had on their lives and the ways they manage the condition. This video was produced in partnership with Singapore Cancer Society.
