Our breast are made of 2 basic things:<\/h3> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n \n
\n
\n \"FAT \n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n \n
\n
\n

1) FAT – which looks black on a mammogram<\/h4> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n \n
\n
\n \"mdm_circle_white\" \n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n \n
\n
\n

2) FIBROGLANDULAR TISSUE – ducts, lobules & connective tissue, which look white on a mammogram<\/h4> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n \n
\n
\n \"mdm_circle_mix\" \n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n \n
\n
\n

Your Personal Density is the amount of fat versus fibroglandular tissue you have. The more fibroglandular tissue you have versus fat, the denser your breasts.<\/h4> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

There are 2 problems with dense breasts:<\/h3> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n \n
\n
\n

PROBLEM #1 –<\/h4>\n

Cancer also looks white on a mammogram, so the more density you have the harder it is to find the cancer.<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n \n
\n
\n \"Breast \n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n \n
\n
\n

PROBLEM #2 –<\/h4>\n

The higher your density the higher your risk.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A woman with extra dense breasts is 4-6 times MORE LIKELY to develop breast cancer than a woman with almost no density.<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n
