Smoking and Risk  

Is there a link between smoking and breast cancer?

We all know that smoking cigarettes is bad for you. Smoking increases your risk of developing lung and bladder cancer and increases your risk for heart disease, as well as other serious health problems.

Scientists suspect that smoking tobacco also could increase the risk of breast cancer. Researchers have shown that the breast fluid of smokers contains many of the cancer-causing substances present in tobacco smoke.
