I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. In hopes of avoiding future disease, some women at very high risk of developing breast cancer elect to have both breasts surgically removed, a procedure called bilateral prophylactic mastectomy or preventive mastectomy. The surgery aims to remove all breast tissue that potentially could develop breast cancer. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
