Breast cancer remains a leading cause of mortality among women worldwide, presenting significant treatment challenges due to its aggressive nature and lack of targeted therapies. Traditional treatments, including surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, have improved survival rates. However, limitations such as drug resistance and adverse side effects persist. Recent advancements in nanotechnology offer promising avenues for enhancing breast cancer treatment by improving drug delivery, increasing therapeutic efficacy, and minimizing systemic toxicity. This review explores breast cancer's pathophysiology and molecular mechanisms, evaluates current diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, and discusses emerging innovations in nanotechnology and integrative medicine. Recent studies have demonstrated the efficacy of green nanotechnology in transforming Ayurvedic medicine into scientifically credible treatments. These integrative approaches not only enhance the therapeutic potential of traditional medicine but also offer a pathway to overcome challenges associated with conventional cancer treatments. The convergence of nanotechnology and traditional medical systems holds transformative potential in breast cancer therapy. By leveraging the unique properties of nanoparticles and nanorobotics, it is possible to develop more effective, personalized, and less toxic treatment modalities. Future research should optimize these integrative approaches, conduct rigorous clinical trials, and elucidate the underlying mechanisms to fully realize their potential in combating breast cancer.
