Can breast implant, augmentation, enhancement cause breast cancer? |
Can breast implant, augmentation, enhancement cause breast cancer? This has been studied in depth and the consensus now is, it's unlikely. What clouds the conclusion is the fact that any large sample of women with implants will include women who would have gotten breast cancer anyway (due to genetic factors, for example). Source(s): Former nurse There have been many medical studies performed showing a link to the silicone breast implants and breast cancer. Of course, they didn't come to this conclusion until too many women developed breast cancer due to leakage of silicone in their bodies. I do not believe that our medical society undergoes enough testing of products and drugs before they are put on the market for our use and consumption. (The biggest lobbyists are the drug pharmaceutical companies) and their money and power tends to sway our government to "approve" quite a few recent drugs that were recalled after thousands of people became ill or died. NO No since silicone implants are no longer available for augmentation and enhancement purposes. I, myself, am considering breast implants. I have read that there are no specific links associated with breast cancer and the saline implants. Now, as another answerer stated, the silicone ones have had reports linked to breast cancer in the past. And, despite another answerer's response, the silicone implants ARE available again. They are "more natural". And, I'm sure they are more expensive. However, I would find a plastic surgeon that is within your budget and geographical area, email their website and ask the dr. specifically. My mother had breast cancer (doing wonderful now), and a lot of people question my "need" for this surgery. I need this for a more positive self body image. There are many ways every day that can take you out of this world. So, I've learned to be careful, but have fun and love your life. Hope everything works out for you. Current registered nurse |
