A 2024 report from the International Agency
for Research on Cancer indicated 71 percent
of new cases of breast cancer across
the globe were diagnosed in individuals age 50
and older. Though age is a known risk factor for
various types of cancer, it’s important that women
recognize a signifi cant percentage of breast
cancer diagnoses in many parts of the world are
made in women younger than 50. For example,
nearly one in fi ve of breast cancer diagnoses in
both North America (18 percent) and Europe (19
percent) are made in women younger than 50,
while almost half of all breast cancers in Africa
(47 percent) are diagnosed in women who have
not yet reached their fi ftieth birthdays. Though
such fi gures are affected by a number of variables,
including the accessibility of screening
procedures like mammograms, they speak to the
reality that breast cancer can affect women at any
age, a notion that underscores the signifi cance of
screening and the need to support efforts to make
it more accessible in every corner of the globe.
