Yet behind the global movement lies a sobering truth: breast cancer remains the most common cancer among women worldwide and one of the leading causes of cancer deaths. In Ghana, breast cancer has emerged as the number one cancer in both incidence and prevalence. Breast cancer is therefore not only Ghana’s most common cancer but also the second leading cause of cancer deaths after liver cancer. This reality is echoed across Africa, where breast cancer is now the most common cancer overall and the leading cause of cancer death in women. In 2022, the continent recorded 198,553 new cases, accounting for 16.8% of all cancers, and 91,252 deaths, representing 11.9% of cancer deaths.
