Hereditary Cancer Quiz

Medical family history can help patients gain insight into conditions and risks related to their health. A patient’s full medical history can help doctors with the risk assessment of certain diseases and recommend treatments and lifestyle changes to reduce these risks. Family history includes not only immediate family but extended as well. 
The more information your doctor has, the better. A history of medical conditions including cancer, high blood pressure, and any pregnancy complications will create a clearer picture of a patient’s health.
Consider talking with your family about this information and gather all of the details possible.
Women’s Health and Menopause Center offers a Hereditary Cancer Quiz that will evaluate any genetic risks for the disease and provide tips for a healthier life.
