It’s particularly important for women to look out for signs of bowel cancer and not to just assume they’re linked to their period.
Almost nine in 10 cases of bowel cancer occur in people over 60 years old, and you can’t change your age.
You also can’t change your family history and having a close relative such as a mother, father, brother or sister who had the disease under 50 years old increases your risk.
However, while the cause of bowel cancer is not yet known, both women and men should avoid certain lifestyle habits that will increase their risk.
