Breast cancer is affecting more young patients every year, studies indicate, prompting survivors to stress the importance of speaking up and advocating for yourself.
One woman said she nearly failed to have a symptom checked because she believed she was too young to be at risk.

Survivors have urged people not to dismiss symptoms because of their age and to seek advice when something appears wrong.
