Breast Cancer
May 13th, 2010
What kind of tests or examinations should be done for breast cancer?
So I am 20 years old and I began to become more worried about breast cancer.
There is no history of breast cancer in my family but I just thought it would be good to do some early testing just in case.
So I was wondering, what kind of tests should be done to detect breast cancer at age 20? I heard that mannograms should be done around 35. Is there any other examinations that you can do at an early age? And if there is where can I get them done? Regular family physician, gynocologist? Thanks everyone!
There is no reason to do screening tests at your age. You should get a breast exam when you have your annual pap. Mammograms are recommended annually starting at age 40. If you find a lump in your breast before then have your doctor check it. Exposing yourself to unnecessary radiation is never a good idea.

1 A Minute (Widescreen) $14.96 Narrated by Kelly McGillis ("Top Gun"), the global docudrama 1 A Minute is an unprecedented push in international celebrities to help raise funds for a cure, promote awareness and prevention, as well as support survivors of women's cancers, with a focus on breast cancer. When actress Namrata Singh Gujral lost two aunts to breast cancer, the Indo-American filmmaker realized that she might be at high risk. Then in 2008, Gujral herself got the phone call that every women dreads: You have breast cancer! Furious with the toll that cancer takes around the world, and terrified for herself and her 9 year old daughter, Gujral decided to turn her harrowing journey into a positive outcome: she launched the film "1 A Minute" as a global call to action while still undergoing chemotherapy. The film follows a woman's journey through cancer, with a focus on breast cancer. At each stage of the woman's journey, the film interweaves personal stories from our stars - who are survivors themselves or those affected closely. Never-been-released Global "Pink" Premieres And Live Celebrity Panel Coverage. |
