Breast Cancer Awareness
Breast cancer is the second most common kind of cancer in women. About 1 in 8 women born today in the United States will get breast cancer at some point.
The good news is that most women can survive breast cancer if it’s found and treated early. A mammogram – the screening test for breast cancer – can help find breast cancer early when it’s easier to treat.
Do You Really Need That Mammogram?
Mammograms may rival colonoscopies for the least-favorite screening test among women.
In spite of the discomfort mammograms may cause, many women stick to a regular schedule of getting them—and with good reason.
