Scottish women have the highest risk of breast cancer and are to be offered a preventative drug on the NHS. Kaye asks whether you would want to know your chances of getting cancer.
It has been announced that women in Scotland, who are most at risk of developing breast cancer, are to be offered a preventative drug on the NHS.
Overall, it is estimated that more than one in three people will be diagnosed with some form of cancer during their lifetime but odds may be even greater for some when other risks, such as diet and family history are taken into account.
Kaye asks if you think it's helpful to know your individual risk of getting cancer? And would you like the opportunity to take a preventative drug for breast cancer if it is in your family history?
