CAMPAIGNERS are aiming to raise the profile of women who suffer from benign breast disorders.

The Breast Care Campaign (BCC) says in more than 90 per cent of consultations with doctors, breast problems are found to be benign.

The BCC has developed a series of leaflets on the three main symptoms, breast pain, breast lumps and nipple disorders.

The leaflets answer the most common questions women ask about their breasts, including what cysts are and links between the pill and cancer.

For more details contact the BCC at 1 St Mary Abbots Place, London, W8 6LS.
