Males are equally as likely to have #BRCA mutations, but fewer men undergo genetic testing than women. Men who carry BRCA mutations face increased risks for pancreatic and prostate cancers, Kara Maxwell told OncLive.com. BasserBRCA spr.ly/6013l9avh

Many men don’t get tested for #brca even with a family history of cancer. Many also don’t change after a positive mutation. My hope is to spread awareness and inspire more to optimize health to improve cancer prevention. BasserBRCA #brca2
