Cancer in Young Women

As with most cancers, breast cancer does not discriminate. It affects both men and women, young and old. However, the Cleveland Clinic reports that "only five percent of all Breast cancer cases occur in women under 40 years old." Breast cancer in adolescents and teens is extremely rare.

you can get it at any age, but women at age 40 are more likely to get it. A lot of women at age 20 get it, but if you are like 14 its a unlikely to get it, like 1 in a million chance.
