Background: Breast cancer is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in Australia with one in seven women diagnosed in their lifetime, and one in 53 dying by age 85 years. Breast cancer screening is a vital tool in early detection but does not prevent cancer.
Objective: This article provides general practitioners (GPs) with evidence-based strategies for breast cancer prevention. It outlines breast cancer risk factors, personalised risk assessment tools, and the role of lifestyle modification, risk-reducing medication and risk-reducing surgery. Resources are included to assist GPs to educate, empower and support women to access prevention information.
Discussion: Population-level prevention targets modifiable risk factors, including obesity, alcohol use and physical inactivity. However, individual risk varies widely due to genetic and non-genetic factors, requiring a personalised approach. GPs play a key role in helping women understand their risk and make informed decisions about prevention options, aligned with their values.
期刊介绍:
The Australian Journal of General Practice (AJGP) aims to provide relevant, evidence-based, clearly articulated information to Australian general practitioners (GPs) to assist them in providing the highest quality patient care, applicable to the varied geographic and social contexts in which GPs work and to all GP roles as clinician, researcher, educator, practice team member and opinion leader. All articles are subject to peer review before they are accepted for publication.
