In fact, colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States for men and women combined. All of the above. Few women know that they can dramatically reduce their risk for colorectal cancer through regular screenings and a healthy lifestyle. Through regular screenings, pre-cancerous polyps can be detected and removed before cancer starts. If colorectal cancer does develop and is caught early, it is up to 90 percent curable.
Colorectal cancer is a disease no woman has to die from.
