The Importance of Breast Health: Screenings, Mammograms & More | Planned Parenthood Video
In this informational video, we discuss the importance of breast health, including the risks and warning signs of breast cancer. It’s crucial for people to prioritize their breast health. People can do this by getting regular breast exams and mammograms, as well as seeing a doctor or a nurse if they notice any lumps, swelling, redness, puckering, pain, or discharge in their breasts.
If you’re 25 to 39 years old , we recommend getting a breast exam every 1 to 3 years. Once you turn 40, we recommend getting a breast exam every year to increase your chances of catching breast cancer early.
For mammograms, we recommend every 1 to 2 years once you turn 40 years old.
If you're only just beginning to think about breast health, this educational video is a perfect resource for you to take the necessary steps to ensure your well being.
