  Breast cancer is indeed a highly genetic disease, and unfortunately you hold a greater risk of developing it than other women with no genetic background. However, breast cancer is known to be related also to obesity and a non active lifestyle, so a balanced diet with regular physical activity can help your body in lowering some of the risk.

  Alcohol, obesity, Stay physically active, Eat foods high in fiber, Emphasize olive oil, Avoid exposure to pesticides- they usually similar to estrogen.

  There is a lot of debate about the role of Estrogen exposure. It clearly contributes to breast cancer risk, not as much if you don’t have family history.
  So it might be wise to Avoid long-term hormone therapy. Avoid working night shifts- it changes your hormonal balance because of lighting (light is a big factor of hormonal changes during the day). and there are a lot of estrogen-like pesticides today, it’s suspected as one of the things that raised the amount of breast cancer in modern life.

  Could you see a genetic counsellor to be assessed for BRCA? That might give you more insight as to your risk.
