Breast Health 101
Breast health is an essential aspect of overall well-being. The first step toward taking charge of your health begins with education. Regular self-examination and awareness of what is normal for your body can help in detecting changes early. If you notice a lump or any unusual changes, it’s vital to consult your healthcare provider promptly. Early detection can significantly impact treatment outcomes and survival rates.
