Sadly, yes they do. This disorder isn't confined to a specific age, although it's more prevalent post adolescence.

Bear in mind that a diagnosis of Breast Cancer is by no means a death sentence, with an 80%+ remission rate if it's diagnosed early and treated effectively and diligently.

Yes, but it is very rare. At the age of 20 you should get a mammogram because the cancer can develop in the late teenage years as well as 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s. You should get a YEARLY mammogram by the time you are 40.

Yes but it is very unusual.

Girls with abnormal high progesterone levels are more suceptible to develop breast cancer, but this condition is very rare. If you don't have cases of Breast cancer in your family don't worry. If you have, get used to perform the breast touch frequently searching by suspicious nodules.
