Which cancer is most hereditary?

What is Lynch syndrome?​

Lynch syndrome is a type of inherited cancer syndrome associated with a genetic predisposition to different cancer types. This means people with Lynch syndrome have a higher risk of certain types of cancer. Lynch syndrome is also known as hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC).

Cancer begins when normal cells begin to change and grow out of control, forming a mass called a tumor. A tumor can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous), which means it can spread to other parts of the body. A benign tumor means the tumor can grow but will not spread.

People who have Lynch syndrome have a significantly increased risk of developing colorectal cancer. There is also an increased risk of developing other types of cancers, such as endometrial (uterine), gastric (stomach), ovarian, small bowel (small intestines), pancreatic, prostate, urinary tract, bile duct, sarcomas, and brain cancers, as well as sebaceous tumors of the skin.

Never know there is such a cancer. I just watched a YouTube said the most prevalent gynecologic cancer is uterine cancer, not cervical cancer and then followed by ovarian cancer then fallopian tube cancer. So got one more vulva cancer. Women got so much shit compared to men indeed.
Oh dear, I hope you get them all, they will cut off your jibye and seal up your hole since no use anyway. :laugh:
