Blocks cancer cells from getting the hormones they need to grow. Biological therapy. Works with your body’s immune system to help it fight cancer cells or to control side effects from other cancer treatments. Radiation therapy. Using high-energy rays to kill the cancer cells.

What Can I Do to Reduce My Risk of Breast Cancer? Keep a healthy weight. Be physically active. Choose not to drink alcohol. If you are taking, or have been told to take, hormone replacement therapy or oral contraceptives (birth control pills), ask your doctor about the risks and find out if it is right for you. Breastfeed your children, if possible. If you have a family history of breast cancer or inherited changes in your BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, talk to your doctor about other ways to lower your risk.
Slide 16-

Surveillance Cancer surveillance is the collection of information about cancer, including— Which groups of people were diagnosed with breast cancer. How far the breast cancer had spread at the time it was diagnosed. How the cancer was treated.
Slide 17-
