🎀 What does a breast cancer stage actually mean?

Breast cancer staging helps describe how extensive the cancer is and helps the healthcare team determine treatment options. Stages range from Stage 0 to Stage IV, but staging isn’t based on tumor size alone. Lymph-node involvement, biomarkers and other findings can also play a role. Knowledge is power—and understanding the terminology can make conversations about breast health a little less overwhelming. 💕 #BreastCancerAwareness #BreastCancerEducation #BreastHealth #KnowTheFacts
