October - Breast Cancer Awareness
Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer among women in this country. The best way to nurture your breast health is to have a healthy lifestyle and do everything possible to detect cancer early. When breast cancer is detected earlier, it can be easier to treat, often successfully.

This Week's Living Healthy Tip: A clinical breast exam is a complement to mammograms and an opportunity for women and their doctor or nurse to discuss changes in their breasts, early detection testing, and factor in the woman's history that might make her more likely to have breast cancer. Women in their 20's and 30's should have a CBE as part of a periodic health exam by a health professional preferably every 3 years. After age 40, women should have a breast exam by a health professional every year
