Why Are More Young Women Getting Breast Cancer? | Amy’s Story

Amy was just 30 when she was diagnosed with breast cancer an age when cancer probably feels like the last thing you should be worrying about.

In this episode, we talk about what it’s really like facing breast cancer as a young woman from diagnosis and treatment to fertility, body image, relationships, BRCA1 and the reality of trying to rebuild your life afterwards.

We also ask the question so many of us are wondering: why are we hearing about more and more young women being diagnosed with breast cancer?

An honest conversation about being young, being thrown into a world you never expected to be part of, and figuring out what the f**k life looks like afterwards.
