Overview
Most cancers tend to spread to other parts of the body. However, whether or not they spread and how fast they do depend on several factors. The best way for a doctor to depend on how fast your cancer spreads is to identify what type of breast cancer the patient has.
There are different types of breast cancer and they grow at different rates. It is hard to be certain how fast breast cancer grows or spreads because every cancer diagnosis is different. The question of how long a breast cancer has been present in a patient when it is observed is virtually impossible to know, but it is most common that many tumors started at least five years before detection.
Patients diagnosed with breast cancer wonder how fast it develops, grows, and spreads, how fast it increases in size and how fast it spreads to lymph nodes. Bones or other parts of the body. In this article, I will be discussing factors that affect the rate at which breast cancer grows and spreads and how it starts.
