Abstract
The studies of the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and breast cancer (BC) risk showed that the latter was 1.16 and 1.66 in subjects with a BMI of 25-29.5 and above 30 kg/m2, respectively. Within the framework of a screening program for the early diagnosis of BC, a mass questionnaire-based survey of women was conducted to identify predominant risk factors. The study indicated that a BMI of more than 25 kg/m2 was found in 54.8% of the district's women; obesity was observed in 21% of the women asked. The local population had higher BMI than had the female newcomers. The most unfavorable indicators were revealed among women over 46 years of age. In this group, overweight was found in 76.6%, including in 37% with second-third-degree obesity.
