The results were as showed a highly significant increase (P≥ 0.01 ) in serum levels of cortisol and leptin in patients with breast cancer with controls groups, while there were no significant differences in the levels between patients with benign breast disease and control groups. The patients with breast cancer were found significant lower (P≥0.01 )  in the levels of serum Vitamin D in patients with breast cancer and no differences in patients with benign breast diseases compared with controls groups. The results also showed a significant increase in the (BMI) for the first age group of benign breast tumors and a significant increase (P≥0.01 ) for all groups of malignant tumor compared with control groups . The results showed increased with the progression of tumor stage progresses from first to third stage while decrease in the fourth stage.
