Breast cancer in young women.
So breast cancer mortality in young women was slowly coming down year after year after year.
But for the past few years, it's been plateauing, which means that something is happening such that the kinds of breast cancer that we're getting in these young women is either causing more mortality
or is generally more aggressive.
And we know both of these three, too.
And once again, it's not because of early detection, number one, because most of these women are not being caught by mammography.
No.
They're detecting it often themselves.
And number two, as I said, statistics don't lie.
That's right.
They haven't even started the mammograms.
So they are detecting by themselves, often coming to their doctors because of having detected it.
And secondly, the statistics don't lie.
And it's being reflected by this lowered curve or slowing down of the gains that we've had in the past decades.
I'll give you one last example.
And that's also relevant.
And that is endometrial cancer.
So endometrial cancer, also in women, and particularly in young women, has been rising in cases.
Endometrial cancer, we don't usually have a detection for, we don't have any test for.
It's usually when people come with bleeding or pain.
