New life dimension among younger women with breast cancer

This research will provide a comprehensive glimpse of young women infected by the second most fatal type of cancer whose treatment is traumatizing as ever. This includes how these women are exposed to breast cancer, quality of life, how they deal with the sickness, how socio-economic differences relate to survival, nature of their diagnosis and treatment and primary care affect their wellbeing. This topic is of importance considering the current trends in the rising of breast cancer among the young women in our communities and the higher risk of transitional lifestyle shock they undergo between before and after contraction.

The motivation behind this research is the series of studies which have coherently concluded that younger women with breast cancer are most likely to be psychologically distressed (Runowicz, 2016). Younger women are at the peak of their life experiences, academic, financial and career progression, sexual and family planning and other life adventures. When the disease strikes, it comes with enormous lifestyle demands of adjustments in terms of healthy living, the balance between medication and other obligations, raising a family and maintaining a focused, positive mind. Through qualitative and quantitative research and analysis methods, this study will enable primary care personnel to develop a psychological perspective when dealing with their younger cancer patients. Subsequently, this study helps governments, hospitals, and health organizations integrate systems that orient young cancer patients in medical and non-medical programs to provide both body and mental stability.

The literature instils explicit knowledge on how older cancer women are taken care of in the Breast Cancer Survivorship research with comparison and contractions of both age groups

lives’ dynamics and in-depth cross-examination from the literature that reviewed the health-related quality of life (QOL), reproduction and fertility, and other behaviours within younger women patients.
