Breast Surgery

-


 If you have localized breast cancer, your healthcare team will almost always recommend surgery to remove it. Surgery is considered the primary treatment for breast cancer when it's technically possible to remove the affected tissue. (It's not an effective treatment for metastatic breast cancer — when the cancer has already spread to other parts of your body.)

Sometimes breast cancer surgery removes an individual tumor from your breast (lumpectomy), and other times it may be necessary to remove your entire breast (mastectomy) to remove the cancer. Breast surgery for cancer is primarily a treatment, but it can also be diagnostic and even cosmetic. Sometimes surgery is exploratory to look for signs of cancer spreading. Sometimes it involves reconstructing your breast after a mastectomy.

The type of surgery that your healthcare team recommends for you will depend on many individual factors, including the type of cancer you have, how advanced it is, your general health and your personal preferences. Depending on your condition, surgery may be only a piece of your overall treatment plan, or it may be the only treatment you need.

What are the different types of surgeries for breast cancer?

The two types of surgery used to treat breast cancer are mastectomy and lumpectomy. Additional surgeries for breast cancer may include lymph node dissection (lymphadenectomy) and breast reconstruction surgery.

Mastectomy

Mastectomy, or breast removal surgery, is the most common surgery for breast cancer. That’s because mastectomy treats both late-stage and early-stage breast cancers. In addition, some people with a high risk of developing breast cancer in the future choose prophylactic mastectomy as a preventative measure.

Types of mastectomy procedures include:

- Total mastectomy: Removal of your entire breast, sparing your chest muscle beneath.

- Double mastectomy: Removal of both breasts. This may be necessary if the cancer has already spread to both breasts, or it may be a preventative measure.

Male Fertility And Anabolic Steroids

Male infertility can be a very sensitive and difficult issue for many men to accept. It can come as a big surprise that they may be creating the problem by taking certain supplements – especially (anabolic) steroids. Steroids that are used to enhance strength and fitness can actually drastically lower a sperm count (to zero in many cases). These types of steroids can do damage to male fertility. The drugs interfere with the hormone signals required to produce sperm. The amount of damage depends on which drugs are being used, the dosage and how often they are taken. Anabolic steroids can be found in some fitness and muscle-building dietary supplements from unreputable companies. Excessive amounts of anabolic steroids may help you achieve a more muscle-bound physique; however, at the same time, it can also lower your sperm count considerably. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) are important hormones in sperm production. These drugs affect FSH and LH and i...

Understanding Uterine Shape Abnormalities

Understanding Uterine Shape Abnormalities, Their Detection, and Impact on Fertility The uterus, a vital organ in a woman's reproductive system, plays a crucial role in fertility. Its shape can vary significantly among individuals, and abnormalities in uterine shape can have a significant impact on a woman's ability to conceive. Uterine Shape Abnormalities: Bicornuate Uterus:  This condition is characterized by a heart-shaped uterus, where the organ is divided into two sections. It can reduce the space available for an embryo to implant, increasing the risk of miscarriage. Septate Uterus:  In this condition, a septum or wall divides the uterus into two parts, limiting the available space for an embryo to implant. It can also increase the risk of miscarriage. Arcuate Uterus:  An arcuate uterus has a slight indentation at the top, but it generally doesn't affect fertility. However, in some cases, more significant indentations may impact implantation. Unicornuate Uterus: ...
