Want to feel old? I’m an adult cardiologist and my last patient was born in 2003. People born in 2003 are now adults.

I'll feel old when I see my first patient with breast cancer born in 2000 or later. It's coming. I do see the occasional patient in her 20s with breast cancer, and I've already had a number of patients born in the 1990s.

Breast cancer that young? I know cancer can happen at any age, but how common is breast cancer at that age? Are there certain types that are more prevalent with young women vs older women?

It's VERY uncommon in one's 20s. But I work at an NCI- designated comprehensive cancer center. So we see these rare cases.
