Low-dose aspirin may cut breast cancer risk by a fifth !

Taking low-dose aspirin at least three times per week may reduce women’s risk of breast cancer by up to 20 percent, a new study suggests.

Study co-author Leslie Bernstein, Ph.D., of the Division of Biomarkers of Early Detection and Prevention at the City of Hope Beckman Research Institute in Monrovia, CA, and colleagues recently reported their findings in the journal Breast Cancer Research.

After skin cancer, breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the United States. This year, more than 252,000 new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed.

Previous research has suggested that there may be a link between daily aspirin use and lower risk of breast cancer.
