Patient's question:
I have a condition of breast hyperplasia myself. Now I am four months pregnant, and the check-up revealed that it's a girl. I'm afraid that breast hyperplasia will be inherited by my daughter. I want to know what diseases can be inherited by daughters?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, breast diseases are easily inherited by daughters. If more than one person in the family suffers from breast cancer, the risk of breast cancer in the descendants of this family increases several times. Additionally, ovarian cancer has a 5% to 10% chance of being inherited by daughters. Furthermore, pregnancy-induced hypertension also has a certain genetic tendency, with an incidence rate six to eight times higher than that of normal people. Therefore, it is important to timely prevent these diseases.
