My Doctor: How to reduce your risk of breast cancer in 2025

As we approach the new year, many Australians are already thinking about the kinds of changes and goals they are going to put into effect in 2025 to achieve better life outcomes.

Many of these will involve losing weight, changing jobs, buying a new home, getting a raise and travelling however Associate Professor Sanjay Warrier believes that with breast cancer now impacting one in seven women, reducing the risk of developing breast cancer should be top of many people’s New Year’s resolutions lists.

He included his list of priorities for 2025 when speaking with My Doctor news platform.

Health is much more important than anything else. If you don’t have your health, you don’t have much at all.

Instead of making New Year’s resolutions that will cause you stress and angst, why not make your resolutions about how to improve your breast health to reduce the risk of breast cancer.

While genetics and other factors undeniably play a role in the likelihood of developing breast cancer, lifestyle choices also have a significant impact. By making proactive changes, you can work towards reducing the risk.
