It is that time of the year again. Yes, October is all about pink. Breast cancer does not discriminate against race, age, gender, ethnicity, the rich or the poor. Therefore each and every individual needs to get educated, informed and spread the message. There are a few events happening this month and I will try as much as possible to keep the blog updated. I will leave you all with 3 steps for preventive care.
1. Self breast examination; a woman should begin practicing breast self examination by the age of 20 and continue this practice throughout her life even during pregnancy and after menopause. It should be done regularly at the same time every month.
2. Clinical examination should be done by a physician or nurse trained to evaluate breast problems.
3. Mammography is a low dose x-ray of the breasts to find changes that may occur.
