摘要
Breast Cancer is the most complex treatment in the present scenario. When the patient is diagnosed with breast cancer, it affects patients' psychosocial condition. During the treatment process, patients suffer from depression, loss of hope, stress and other associated psychological issues. This study suggests that psychosocial factors are highly significant for persons with breast cancer. This paper also discusses the methodology of the study, level of psychological factors and provide recommendations for the health care institution and health care professionals focusing on patients' mental health aspects.
