Be Breast Aware Breast cancer is the most common cancer found in women today, 1 in 9 women will develop breast cancer in their lifetimes. At present over 50,000 new cases of breast cancer are diagnosed every year in the UK and Ireland. That’s one woman every fifteen minutes! Early detection of breast cancer means a patient has more treatment choices and a much better chance of recovery! In some cases early detection can increase survival rates by up to 90% . Three steps for early detection of breast cancer are recommended by medical experts worldwide: - Monthly self-examination starting from the age of 20.
- A clinical breast examination by a qualified physician every three years to age 40, and each year thereafter.
- A mammogram at age 50 and every 3 years thereafter.
