What age does lymphoma affect?
Lymphoma has what we call a bimodal peak, which means that 2 distinct age groups have the highest incidence of occurrence of Hodgkin’s, the first age group is 15-25 years old and the second one is by 55 years old. Hodgkin’s lymphoma is generally more common in males, but one type -nodular sclerosing- is more common in females. Lymphoma affects roughly 3 individuals in 100,000 in most populations.
