The Anatomy Of Breast Cancer
Regularly checking your breasts is important for maintaining good breast health. By doing self-exams, you can become familiar with the normal look and feel of your breasts and be able to detect any changes or abnormalities.
Early detection of breast cancer is key to successful treatment, and self-exams are an important part of that process. It's recommended that women perform breast self-exams monthly and receive regular mammograms as recommended by their healthcare provider.
Don't hesitate to speak with a healthcare provider if you notice any changes or have concerns about your breast health.
Learn more with our informative poster detailing the types of breast cancer, how to detect, staging and changes to look out for.
What Treatments Are Available?
Breast cancer can be treated through a variety of methods, including surgery, radiotherapy, and drug therapies such as chemotherapy and hormone therapy. Additionally, targeted therapies, which include biological and immunotherapies, are often used to specifically target cancer cells and improve treatment outcomes. These treatment options may be used individually or in combination, depending on the stage and type of cancer, as well as the patient's overall health.

What now?
When diagnosed with breast cancer, you can expect to undergo a series of diagnostic tests and imaging exams to determine the stage and type of cancer. Treatment options will then be discussed with you.
Living with Breast Cancer
Support from friends, family, and medical professionals can be helpful, as can engaging in self-care activities such as exercise, meditation, and therapy. Joining a support group can also provide a sense of community and understanding.
