Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October is celebrated as breast cancer awareness month. We see millions of cases of breast cancers that are detected at a later stage or after having been already spread to other parts of the body. Awareness around this, if, increased,would be able to detect these cases at an earlier stage when treatment is possible and feasible.

Scientists across the globe are working on improving the current state of affairs with treatments and modalities that cause minimum complications or a threat to the life of an individual.

Let's use technology and available platforms to increase awareness around prevention and detection of breast cancers. Regular self breast examination is the most recommended way to catch any signs of a tumor/ lump in breasts.

Examination by a gynecologist supported with Mammography or Sono-mammography should be done once in every 6 months to 1 year.

Lets use the month of October to spread awareness around breast cancers!!
