Breast cancer is in most cases found in the lobule (glands that produce breast milk) and ducts (tubes that carry milk from the lobule to the nipple).

There are two groups of breast cancer noninvasive- remains in the breast and invasive- breaks through the breast tissue and enters other parts of the body through blood vessels and lymph nodes, the name of this process is called metastasis. Breast Cancer happens when cancerous tumors start to form. Breast Cancer can develop when cell growth doesn’t go right, new cells forming when they are not needed, and when old or damaged cells do not die as they should.
