Do Men Get Breast Cancer? | Dr. Sandeep Nayak
Yes, men can get breast cancer.
Although rare, males can develop breast cancer in the non-functional ducts, glands, and other breast tissues present in their chest. The most common type seen in both men and women is infiltrating ductal carcinoma (IDC). However, cancers involving milk-producing and storing structures are far less common in men.
One of the biggest challenges with male breast cancer is the lack of awareness, which often leads to delayed diagnosis. Many men do not consider the possibility of breast cancer when they notice a lump, hardness, or pain in the chest area. Moreover, since men have less breast tissue, even small tumors can quickly grow and spread before being detected, making early diagnosis more difficult.
If you're a man experiencing unusual changes in your chest area, donât ignore them. Early consultation and screening can save lives.
