Risk factors for colorectal cancer include:
- age 50 or older
- history of colorectal polyps
- family history of colorectal cancer
- personal history of ovarian cancer, endometrial or breast
- a chronic inflammatory disease such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease
- unhealthy diet: high in red meat and low in fiber, fruits and vegetables
- reduced physical activity or non-existent
If you are exposed to one of these risk factors, talk to your doctor about a screening test for colorectal cancer.
