I was diagnosed over 20 years ago at age 32. I looked everywhere to find one other women my age. I checked with reach to recovery and many other places and I finally found 2 other young people with breast cancer. I definitely feel like it is hitting women in much larger numbers at an early age. I was the first wave of young women using birth control pills. They gave them to me at age 13 to control cramps. I know not all women that use bc pills get breast cancer but the timing is interesting.
