Did you know that breast cancer affects 1 in every 9 women worldwide? Make that 1 out of 4 in Asia according to the National cancer registry Malaysia.
October is breast cancer awareness month and the B in OctoBer stands for Breast Mammogram. The best means of protection is self examination. To be even more sure, get a breast mammogram!
As with all cancers, the best chance of surviving cancer is early detection. It’s quite difficult to examine your own colon, but you can do so with your breasts so being aware of your breasts can mean the difference between life and death!
Like the above breast cancer awareness slogan says:
Preventing breast cancer is not in your hands but early detection is!
