The Complete Breast Book
With the increased awareness about breast cancer and other abnormalities, it is important that women are equipped with the information necessary to take care of themselves. 'The Complete Breast Book' is a thorough and up-to-date guide to all breast disorders that women should know about. June Engel describes the structure of the healthy female breast, its fluctuations with the menstrual cycle, and the many noncancerous breast and nipple disorders that can develop. A step-by-step illustrated guide shows women how to examine their own breasts each month, describing the danger signs to watch for. She discusses breast cancer in depth, explains what cancer is and the factors that put you at special risk; the surgical choices and the reasons behind them; radiation, drug (including Herceptin and Raloxifene) and hormone treatments after surgery; and the many ways of rebuilding a breast. There is a section on sentinel node biopsy - a newly emerging technique - and a section on breast cancer in men. Reassuring and practical, this book addresses the woman and her needs: How do you find the right specialist? Where do you turn for advice and moral support?
After the trauma of breast surgery, how do you adjust to your self-image? How do you resume your sex life, reassure your family, rethink your life? 'The Complete Breast Book' banishes the myths and fears held by many women and provides knowledge and reassurance to those who have faced problems in their own lives or the lives of those close to them.
