October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness about breast cancer, encourage regular screenings and remind women to take an active role in their health.
Breast cancer can affect women of all ages. While some risk factors cannot be changed, staying up to date with recommended screenings and knowing what is normal for your body can help support early detection and better health outcomes.
Make Your Breast Health a Priority
Regular breast cancer screening is an important part of preventive care. Talk with your healthcare provider about when you should begin mammograms and how often you should be screened based on your age, personal health history and risk factors.
It is also important to be familiar with how your breasts normally look and feel. If you notice a new lump, change in breast size or shape, skin changes, nipple changes or other unusual symptoms, talk with your healthcare provider.
Breast health is just one part of taking care of yourself. Women’s health needs can change throughout every stage of life, which is why having a healthcare team you trust matters.
