As a doctor, I often stress the importance of early detection in breast health. Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women, but treatments tend to improve significantly if detected at an early stage. Therefore, knowledge of early symptoms and screening methods is essential for every woman.
First, I would like to share the importance of self-censorship. Every woman is required to carry out regular breast self-inspection to obtain a basic picture of her breast. In general, it is proposed to select a fixed time per month for self-examination, preferably a few days after menstruation. At this time, the mammogram is softer and it is easier to detect anomalies. During self-examination, care is taken to observe the shape, size and skin changes of the breast, while a small hand pressure can be used to find hard or swelling.
In addition to self-censorship, regular professional screening is essential. I recommend that women, when they reach a certain age, conduct regular mammography examinations, such as mammograms (mammography) or ultrasound examinations. These examinations can help doctors to detect potential tumours in a timely manner, especially those that are not usually apparent at an early stage.
In my clinics, I often encounter patients who miss the best screening time due to insufficient awareness of breast health. I therefore call on women friends to share their breast health information with their families and friends, to remind each other and to share their concerns.
It was also important to understand the high risk factors of breast cancer. Family history, age, hormone levels, lifestyle, etc. are all factors that may affect breast health. As a doctor, I recommend more frequent screening of high-risk groups and discuss with doctors individualized preventive measures. This not only reduces risk but also raises awareness of self-protection.
Mental health is also not negligible in early screening. Many women may be reluctant to be screened for fear of the results. It is, however, essential to maintain a positive mentality. Understanding the early symptoms of breast cancer and confronting it with courage help us to better control our health. I often encourage patients not to be trapped in fear, but to be proactive in understanding and responding.
Finally, I would like to mention that breast health is not just a personal matter, but that family and community support is also important. Through active communication and sharing, more women can be made aware of the importance of regular screening. To create a supportive environment that will make every woman more courageous to face a health check.
In conclusion, early screening is an important measure to protect the health of women’s breast. As a doctor, I would like every woman to be aware of her breast health, to conduct regular self-inspection and professional screening, to know her body and to respond positively. Only then can we better care for our health and enjoy a better life.
