- Now that you understand the risk factors for breast cancer, it’s time for you to learn how breast cancer develops. This is called the “pathology of breast cancer.” It pertains to what goes wrong to make cancer cancer. In this video, I’ll lead you through the progression of changes that ultimately become breast cancer.

I had “carcinoma insitu “ . The doctor did tell me that it is not always considered cancer. This has been so enlightening! Thank you so much
Thank you 💕 very interesting...
Thank you for explaining this so we can all understand soych better...
It all seems less scary when you realise it's taken ALL those years to grow...
Exactly! And that's why we typically find breast cancers so very early or even before they become cancer.
I wonder who introduced the contradictory term “cancer in situ” (CIS) and whether anyone in the field challenged this?
I know who coined the mane ... and he says he could kick himself.
Really great video. I thought the analogy with heart disease was very illuminating 😊
I'm so glad this helps you.
Ah Ha! This lesson has brought it all together for me. I remember hearing, many times, how breast cancer develops…but this video put it my brain for good and that is why it is so important to watch your videos in order.
If I am ever diagnosed with CIS or DCIS, I will ask…is it invasive?
I bet they will be surprised with the knowledge my menopause University teacher has given me. ☺
Love, love to you, dear Barbie. 💕💕
All your doctors will ask if you're a medical professional from now on.
If a CIS never becomes invasive, that means the atypical neoplastic cells stop dividing/multiplying, correct? (Otherwise they’d become too many and wouldn’t fit into their original bordered space). Will we learn what stops the CIS cells from multiplying?
Thank you for this lecture, Dr Taylor! 🌸
If CIS becomes invasive, it is no longer "CIS.
It is then "Invasive breast cancer."
@@MenopauseTaylor Yes, I understand. But you also taught us that that CIS may never become invasive breast cancer. Does this mean the CIS stops growing / CIS cells stop multiplying? How come? What stops the growth so it remains CIS instead of becoming invasive? That was my question.
I thin this is helpful in understanding cancer in general.
So true! And I've already given you a whole unit on cancer in general.
Thank you so very much 😊😊😊
My pleasure!
6 years ago I had removal of left LCIS in the outer upper quadrant the size of a small olive after feeling like my progesterone had been gone for about 6-7 years prior to that because I had been experiencing terrible migraines, heavy periods & aching breasts for 2 weeks out of each cycle. Last year, I had ER+ PR+ IDC 1B inthe same quadrant so they did a lumpectomy and radiation and they wanted me to go on estrogen blockers. I refused the estrogen blockers because I have become post meno and feel so horrible without estrogen & progesterone and antidepressants, anti anxiety meds and insomnia meds did not help. My doctor actually put me on HRT and I feel so much better now but I worry about whether my breast cancer will return. I honestly feel like I hadn’t been right hormonally speaking for a decade. My hypothesis is that the lack of adequate progesterone & estradiol had to contribute my breast woes. I can’t wait to hear more about this topic. It seems to me if the uterus needs adequate progesterone to compensate for estradiol level, couldn’t the female breast need the same? I’ll keep scouring the research but it seems to be lacking.
It's critical to tailor everything specifically to YOU for matters such as this.
This is precisely the kind of thing for which I do one-on-one consultations. You definitely need one. I cannot tailor things specifically to you in a comment box. It requires much more information than you can give me here, and you deserve much more information than I can give you here. No two women are alike, and addressing your situation requires tailoring all the facts specifically to YOU. I do them all via online video conferencing. You can schedule at MenopauseTaylor.ME. I look forward to meeting you and helping you.
@@MenopauseTaylor Isn’t it also essential to include this teaching to help others so they’ll know how to have the best chance to steer clear of the breast cancer woes while having the best chance of protecting themselves from the dementia, osteoporosis and heart disease?
I'm trying.@@crepesuzette5540
Now I want to go back and read my Path report with more scrutiny. Wish I had known all this 7 years ago before having a mastectomy. Now I wonder if I ever had invasive and maybe didn't actually have cancer.
This is very possible. It happens a lot.
I wonder if you can speak to the fact that biopsies don’t always tell everything. It seems there can be more there than they see at first, so things can get a little tricky. I went from being told by the obgyn I had dcis, and not to worry but to see a surgeon, to the surgeon saying her pathologist saw microinvasive, to being told (after surgery) it was invasive, 1A. Still early stage but not nothing to worry about. 🤔
Biopsies are tissue samples. And it is possible to sample tissue that does not reveal the full extent of the lesion.
There are also "inter-observer" differences among pathologists looking at biopsy specimens under the microscope. One may label it "A" and another may label it "B."
The most important thing is to understand that breast cancer that is limited to the breast is not deadly. It's only when it travels outside the breast that it has the potential to become deadly. Early diagnosis is key.
"According to the Robert W. Franz Cancer Research Center at Providence Portland Medical Center, breast cancer cells need to divide at least 30 times before they are detectable by physical exam.
Each division takes about 1 to 2 months, so a detectable tumor has likely been growing in the body for 2 to 5 years." (not necessarily 7).
Yes. Every breast cancer diagnosis reveals a cancer that has been present for about 7 years. I do cover this in this breast cancer unit (which consists of 55 videos).
@@MenopauseTaylor But in some cases it can be detected as early as 2 years. I am sorry to contradict you Dr.Taylor, but I just don't understand why you keep saying it takes 7...
@@eugeniakyriakopoulou5212 I understand your question. I’m sorry you didn’t receive an answer. I’d be interested in this as well.
The problem is, none of the pre-cancer activity going on inside the body is detectable with a screening so most often you don't know until it is cancer or dcis. I never missed a mammogram. Ever. And was diagnosed with stage 2b triple positive idc. If I'd known the pre-cancerous activity happening in my body years before then maybe I could have avoided cancer. But there is no screening for that. So, I'm sorry, but it is a scary beast to me. I did everything right as far as screenings and preventative stuff and I still got cancer; and not dcis or stage 1.
On the flip side, people complain about the fact screening tests create false alarms.
The truth is that there is no screening test that is perfect. And the more frequent the screening test, the more false alarms.
"Interval cancers" are cancers that become apparent between mammograms. This is what happened to you. And I am so very sorry that you're dealing with any of this.
Do you think it's a coincidence that many people with epilepsy have focal cortical dysplasia, and also an increased risk of developing cancer? And the removal of excessive carbohydrates from the diet - replaced instead by fats and protein (preferably animal sources) - helps reduce the occurrence of seizures in some epileptics, as well as helping reduce the size and progression of some cancers, including some breast cancers. Do you think these things might be somehow related? Could they be two different branches on the same tree? Also that diabetics are at increased risk of not just cancer, but many other chronic diseases, including heart disease. Everyone knows that sugars are the greatest enemy of the diabetic. Sugars = carbohydrates. Seems to be one common denominator? I'm sure there is more than one reason for disease states in human beings, but this is surely one of the elephants in the room that the individual has at least some control over, isn't it?
Lots of people who had cancer actually turned to raw vegan to overcome & heal from it.
I know when I turned vegan and ate more raw.
Lots of things improved for me, especially inflammation & fatigue…
It’s very interesting to say the least!
I know of no research connecting these things. But, I think most things are indirectly related. And we cause most of our own health problems with our chosen lifestyle and diet.
@@MenopauseTaylorI agree…
I think raw vegan eating, if that means eating mostly raw vegetables, would lead to a state of ketosis (burning your own fat stores), provided you are not filling up on pasta and bread and eating tonnes of fruit. If you are burning your own fat, that helps clean up the body and is why it also helps with cancer. With any of these restrictive diets, you have to watch out the longer you do them because you tend to run into some kind of deficiency eventually. It's prudent to listen to the anecdotes of those who have tried longer term on each of the diets - raw vegan, keto, all of them, to learn how and when to reintroduce foods and supplements, to avoid running into trouble. And I think we need to open our minds and not allow ideology about whether plant or animal foods are better to dictate how we eat. Especially when our lives are on the line. Human beings are designed to be able to eat both plant and animal material. It's clear that animal material provides superior nutrition but plant materials certainly serve a purpose too. But it's also clear that some people get away with eating some cake every now and then, or drinking some alcohol, and somehow make it into their 80s and 90s. So it's about more than just diet in the end, isn't it? @@Phoenixrises89
Why is this condition in the breast treated differently than other body areas? And why do surgeons remove women's breasts for this innocent condition? Not to mention giving chemo and radiation.
If by “innocent condition” you mean CIS, I assume 💰💰💰 has something to do with it. You create widespread fear by calling something “cancer” that isn’t and may never be, and more women than otherwise agree to anything the “expert” recommends to supposedly ensure their survival. It’s depressing, in my opinion.
I cover all this in this breast cancer unit (which consists of 55 videos).
