Brca1

Emmyyounie

hi

I am a brca1 carrier and currently undergoing screening to check my breasts. I am 35 and have been told my risks increase from 40. 

I have not had children yet, so am not keen in mastectomy.  My sister has breast ca. Anyone know what the prognosis is for a triple negative? 

Thanks

Hi Emmyyounie, 

Have you talked with your doctor about your options with regards testing positive for BRCA1 gene? 

We do encourage you to talk with him/her about all your options going forward. 

Here is a link to some of the common options Positive genetic testing but of course your decision will be your own.

Keep us posted!
