Men

In 2021, about 2,650 men are expected to be diagnosed with the disease, and an estimated 530 men are expected to die from breast cancer. For men, the lifetime risk of being diagnosed with breast cancer is about 1 in 833.

RACE

White women are slightly more likely to get breast cancer than others. Black women,however, are often diagnosed later with higher mortality rate due to common misconceptions about breast cancer and other factors.

42%

Breast cancer mortality is more than 42% higher for African American women in the U.S. than Caucasian women.
