What is the beginning of cancer called

[IdeaGenius]

Hello everyone! I'm hoping to get some help from the forum about the beginning of cancer. Does anyone know what it's called? I'm confused and would really appreciate any advice or information anyone can give me. I'm new to this topic and would like to learn more about it. What should I be looking for? What are the signs that something is wrong and that it could be the start of cancer? How can I tell if I might be at risk? Any help or information would be greatly appreciated.

The beginning of cancer is referred to as a precancerous or preinvasive lesion, depending on the type of cancer involved. Preinvasive lesions are changes in the cells that indicate cancer may develop in the future. Precancerous lesions are changes in the cells that are thought to be at increased risk of becoming cancerous.
