Screening & Prevention:

The United States Preventative Service Task Force (USPSTF) recommends biennial screening mammography for women ages 40-74 as mammography screening is the most effective way to improve survival rate against breast cancer. If breast cancer runs in your family, talk with your healthcare provider about starting screening earlier and help reduce the odds of breast cancer mortality.

While there are no guarantees that an individual will not develop breast cancer, several protective factors can decrease a person’s risk.
Maintaining a healthy and active lifestyle
Having a pregnancy before age 35
Specific medications for both premenopausal and postmenopausal women
Prophylactic surgery (removal of tissues/organs done on individuals that have specifically inherited a gene that puts them at high risk for breast cancer)
Staying up to date on mammograms

Signs & Symptoms:

Individuals should perform regular self-breast exams to account for any possible changes. If a new lump or mass has developed, it is important to consult a healthcare provider as this is the most common symptom of breast cancer.

Breast cancer can take on various forms and sizes as it can either be completely painless and hard or the opposite, soft and painful.

Myth Vs. Fact

Myth: "I don't have a family history of breast cancer, so I don't need screening."

Fact: Most women diagnosed with breast cancer do not have a known family history of it.

Myth: "A mammogram can cause breast cancer."

Fact: Mammograms use a very small amount of radiation and are an important screening tool.

Myth: "If I don't have symptoms, I don't need a mammogram."

Fact: Screening is designed to find breast cancer before symptoms appear.

Myth: "Breast cancer only affects older women."

Fact: Breast cancer can occur at any age, although the risk generally increases with age.

Myth: "If I don't have a lump, I don't have breast cancer."

Fact: Breast cancer doesn't always cause a noticeable lump. Screening mammograms can detect breast cancer before symptoms appear.

Myth: "Men can't get breast cancer."

Fact: Men can develop breast cancer, although it is much less common than in women.
