Although this is what usually happens, a lot of young women infected with the disease as well.
Of course some women find men like state of denial, where it says here the Indians, specialist oncology: "There are people who deliberately ignore the symptoms of cancer." It shows that sometimes the cause of cancer is to ignore the culture that cancer has no cure. It should not be paid to talk about the symptoms of concern to the people overreacting, says RANET Michora, assistant professor of family medicine at the Faculty of Medicine at Georgetown University. She says: "People do not want to give the impression that they pay attention to all the simple display."
