"Breast age" is not a standard medical term. It's possible that you're looking for information about breast development, breast cancer risk, or breast cancer screening.
Here's a breakdown of related concepts:
-
Breast Development: During puberty, girls' breasts begin to develop, typically between the ages of 8 and 13. This process is known as thelarche. Full breast development usually occurs by age 17 or 18, but in some cases, it may continue into their early twenties.
-
Breast Cancer Risk: The risk of breast cancer increases with age. The median age at breast cancer diagnosis is 62, meaning half of women diagnosed are over 62. However, breast cancer can occur at any age, even in younger women.
-
Breast Cancer Screening: The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends biennial screening mammography for women aged 40 to 74 years at average risk for breast cancer.
If you're concerned about breast health or development, consult a healthcare professional. They can provide personalized advice and guidance based on your individual circumstances.
