Breast Cancer Screening Begins at Home
Early detection of breast cancer starts with making breast care a priority, and breast care starts at home. No one knows your body like you do.
Screening Mammograms
To guard your breast health, a mammogram is the best screening tool available. It is a safe, low-dose X-ray that can detect changes in the breast long before any symptoms appear or can be felt. Mammograms can be used as a screening tool when you don't have symptoms and as a diagnostic tool if you are experiencing symptoms.
Managing Your Breast Health
There is no proven way to prevent breast cancer, but according to the American Cancer Society, there are certain things you can do to lower your risk. Talk with your physician about your risks to learn when it is best to begin these exams. Your potential risk may determine when you should have your first mammogram and how often you need to have them.
