The present study entitled “A study to compare the breast cancer risk among Premenopausal and postmenopausal women residing at Perinthalmanna municipality” is based on the objectives: Assess the breast cancer risk among premenopausal and postmenopausal women residing at selected wards of Perinthalmanna, compare the breast cancer risk among premenopausal and postmenopausal women residing at selected wards of Perinthalmanna and determine the association between breast cancer risk among premenopausal and postmenopausal women with selected demographic variables. Methodology: Quantitative research approach was used for the study and comparative research design was selected. The study was conducted in 32&34 wards of Perinthalmanna municipality using non probability convenient sampling technique. In this study the investigator has used Modified Gail score to compare the lifetime breast cancer risk among premenopausal and postmenopausal women. Analysis: Data were analysed by using descriptive and inferential statistics. Result: Among 30 premenopausal women 83.3% (25) women are having less than 5% of lifetime breast cancer risk. 13.3% (4) are having 5 – 10% of lifetime breast cancer risk and 3.3% (1) are having 10 – 20% of lifetime breast cancer risk. In postmenopausal women 90% (27) women are having less than 5% of lifetime breast cancer risk and 10% (3) are having 5 – 10% of lifetime breast cancer risk and the demographic variables Body mass index, number of pregnancies and personal habits of smoking and alcoholism have no association with lifetime risk of breast cancer risk. Conclusion: From the study it is evident that premenopausal women have the higher lifetime breast cancer risk than postmenopausal women. The investigator found that there was no association between demographic variables and breast cancer.
