Most of us take pride in our breasts. We lift them up, dress them nicely to show them off, and some us even bounce them around for a living- but how many of us check for breast health every 30 days?
Women over 20 should perform a breast self-exam every month. It’s easiest if you pick a date (the 1st, the 15th, etc) and stick to it. To learn how to perform a breast self-exam follow this link http://www..preventcancer.org/education2c.aspx?id=2398
What’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done? We’re willing to bet that Pin Curl Readers have some wild stories to tell! Post your confession at http://confess.preventcancer.org/ While you’re there take the personal assessment quiz to learn your personal risks and how often you should be screened for cervical cancer. Up to 36% of women aren’t screened often enough, and early detection is key- with a 90% survival rate among women who caught the disease early .
