Abstract
Breast cancer survival rates have increased, and the number of deaths associated with this disease is steadily declining, largely due to factors such as earlier detection, a new personalized approach to treatment and a better understanding of the disease. The investigator has taken up the present study to assess the knowledge and its prevention regarding breast cancer among working women. Descriptive survey design was used for the present study and data was collected from 100 working women by using structured knowledge questionnaire. The result of the study showed 62 women had poor knowledge, while only 06 working women had good knowledge.
