What precautions can be taken if you have a BRCA2 mutation?
If you test positive for a BRCA2 mutation, there are several steps you can take to manage your cancer risk. These may include increased surveillance through regular mammograms and MRIs, prophylactic surgeries such as mastectomy or oophorectomy, and lifestyle changes to reduce overall cancer risk. Additionally, targeted therapies such as PARP inhibitors may be considered for individuals with BRCA2-related cancers.
