How to prevent breast cancer?

With the change of environment, breast cancer patients are getting younger and younger. Breast cancer is related to environmental factors, genetic factors and exogenous hormone stimulation. The prevention of breast cancer mainly involves maintaining an optimistic attitude towards life, controlling emotions, relieving life pressure, working and resting at the same time, strengthening exercise, paying attention to rest and not staying up late, eating less animal fat and spicy food, eating less estrogen food, trying not to take birth control pills, reducing miscarriage, and ending the use of skin care products containing estrogen.

Generally speaking, you can wear an IUD 3 months after a miscarriage. It is generally not recommended to have an IUD inserted directly after a miscarriage, because the uterus has not been repaired after a miscarriage, and it is not easy to put the IUD directly into the body. It is recommended that you wait until 3-7 days after the first menstrual period to go to the hospital to have an IUD inserted.
