Will not getting pregnant increase cancer risk later in life?

Breastfeeding itself does not directly cause cancer. It has a protective effect against breast cancer. Cancer can develop in both people with and without children. It is of utmost importance to have regular check-ups and to practice good nutrition, exercise, and avoid smoking as preventive measures to lower the risk of getting sick. If you have any peculiar and unusual changes in your body like lumps or changes in moles, you should go to an oncologist.
