Doctors have discovered it depends on your genes and other environmental factors as to how long before you are at risk. Some people have a gene that means that they are very much at risk of developing lung cancer. This could mean that only 6 months worth of smoking will seal their fate.Others could smoke for 60 years and still not get it.here also seems to be a very high incidence of emphysema even among non-smokers (confirmed, 2nd highest emphysema deaths in the world!). Some people can smoke 40 cigarettes a day for 60/70 years & never get cancer. There is no set time frame for when cancer will occur or if you will get cancer.
Over 14 years of follow-up nearly 4,000 people developed colon cancer, and the odds were greatest for smokers, women in particular. The risk for colon cancer increased 19 percent among women who smoked and 8 percent for men who smoked, according to Gram's team. The more years a woman smoked, the earlier she started smoking, and the more packs of cigarettes smoked a year, the greater her risk of developing colon cancer. Women who smoked for 40 years or more increased their risk for colon cancer almost 50 percent, the researchers said. Their risk was especially high for developing proximal, or right-sided, colon cancer, with a type of tumor specifically related to smoking, Gram noted.
