Breast cancer is the second most prevalent disease among Indonesian women after cervical cancer, a minister said. "Breast cancer ranks second after cervical cancer among the diseases suffered by Indonesian women," said Women’s Empowerment and Child Protection Minister Linda Amelia Gumilar here Monday after attending a seminar on Breast Cancer Management Update.Linda said the seminar was held to increase women’s knowledge and awareness about breast cancer and how to detect it at an early stage. She said to protect more women from breast cancer her ministry would issue a policy whereby regional hospitals would be provided with mammography instruments.
The minister noted that many hospitals in the country lacked the equipment to detect breast cancer in women at an early stage and therefore, she would require hospitals in the country to include mammography tests in their general medical check-up packages. Linda called on all Indonesian women to remain aware of the risk of breast cancer and the need to detect it as early as possible, if they had it.
"Breast cancer patients can still be cured, if the disease is detected in its early stage," she said.
