Question

Laura Wood is a 41-year-old otherwise healthy Caucasian female who presents for a wellnessvisit with concerns about her increased risk of breast cancer. Her anxiety stems from recent diagnoses of intraductal breast cancer in her mother and maternal first cousin. She has become increasingly vigilant about her breast health, performing self-exams more frequently, and experiences heightened anxiety about her risk of developing breast cancer. The patient has no significant past medical history, does not smoke, drinks alcohol occasionally, and maintains a balanced diet and regular exercise routine. There is a need for a comprehensive evaluation to assess her breast cancer risk, address her anxiety, and implement preventive measures.
