iPrevent- estimating your personal risk of developing breast cancer
Just saw this on a morning tv show and looked it up on the net. Haven't drilled down into it yet but it sounds interesting. It does state that it shouldn't be used if you have had invasive BC or DCIS....

Mine was 3.4% likelihood of BC before I was diagnosed .... my 2 wines in the evening and that I was on hrt cream for 12 morning months may have increased mine ..... or was it having no children? Hmmmm I may do it again ‘with’ children and see if it is different!
Odd ..... having 1 child increased my risk to 3.7%! Then they go on to say that 8% of women will develop BC ..... I Would have thought it more than that, if 8 out of 10 women currently getting it have no family history of it!!
