Currently cancer has become a common disease which one person per three may suffer from
it in their lifespan. Most common types of cancer are breast and endometrial cancer in women
and lung and prostate cancer in men. Even if the statistics have high mortality rates many of

cancer is a preventable and curable disease with early diagnosis. You need not to be afraid of
