Body mass index, age at breast cancer diagnosis, and breast cancer subtype: a cross-sectional study

Journal Contribution - Journal Article

Evidence suggests that premenopausal obesity decreases and postmenopausal obesity increases breast cancer risk. Because it is not well known whether this is subtype dependent, we studied the association between body mass index (BMI) and age at breast cancer diagnosis, or the probability of being diagnosed with a specific breast cancer phenotype, by menopausal status.
