What Is Breast Cancer Screening?
Breast cancer screening is a preventive health check used to find early signs of breast cancer in women who do not have symptoms. The goal is to detect changes at an early stage when treatment is most effective.
Screening is different from diagnosis. Screening looks for possible early signs, while diagnosis confirms cancer after symptoms or abnormal findings appear. Doctors recommend screening even when a woman feels healthy.
Who Should Go for Breast Cancer Screening?
Breast cancer screening is recommended for women based on age and personal risk factors.
Women who should consider screening include:
- Women above 40 years of age
- Women with a family history of breast cancer
- Women with genetic or hormonal risk factors
- Women advised by a doctor due to medical history
Some women may need to start screening earlier depending on risk level.
Breast Cancer Screening Tests Used
Different screening tests are used based on age, breast type, and risk factors.
When Should You Start Breast Cancer Screening?
Most women are advised to start breast cancer screening at the age of 40. Screening frequency is usually once every one to two years depending on medical advice.
Women with higher risk may need earlier screening and more frequent checks. Doctors may customize screening plans based on family history and overall health.
Symptoms That Require Immediate Medical Attention
While screening is preventive, certain symptoms should never be ignored.
Seek medical attention if you notice:
- A new lump in the breast or underarm
- A new lump in the breast or underarm
- Nipple discharge or changes in nipple shape
- Nipple discharge or changes in nipple shape
These symptoms do not always mean cancer but need proper evaluation.
