摘要
Purpose: Currently, breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies among women and it constitutes a significant medical, economic, and social problem. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in a group of 600 healthy women (aged 18 to 88 years) between September 2011 and February 2015 living in the region of Wielkopolska (Poland) in a private gynecological practice. A survey questionnaire designed specifically for purposes of the study was a tool used to conduct the study. Results: With regards to risk factors for breast cancer: 93% - familial history of breast cancer, 46% - use of hormone treatment, and 40.16% - taking contraceptive pills. Conclusions: A significant component of breast cancer prevention should be providing information regarding prevention tests and increasing accessibility to medical services.
