Question: Is it true that it takes years for breast cancer to develop?
Answer: We believe that most breast cancers take from 6-8 years to become big enough to be able to be seen on a mammogram or felt. So they've been there a long time by the time we've diagnosed them, and at some point fairly early on, they develop the ability to break out of the breast and get into the rest of the body.
