Breast Cancer Early Detection: What You Need to Know
Early detection saves lives. Being proactive with your breast health can make all the difference. Here are some important tips:
✅ Perform regular self-exams – at least monthly. This helps you get to know what’s normal for your body so you can spot any changes early.
✅ Understand your risk factors – including age, lifestyle, and reproductive history.
✅ Know your family history – and let your GP know if there’s any history of breast cancer in your family.
✅ Schedule regular mammograms – recommended from age 40 and up, or earlier if you're high risk.
✅ Watch for symptoms – see the poster below for potential signs to be aware of.
📅 If you notice anything unusual or have concerns, don’t wait — book an appointment with your GP.
Your health matters. Early detection is the key. 💗 ... See MoreSee Less
