Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Did you know breast cancer is the most common cancer globally? There are around 2.3 million new cases every year. Internationally, October is recognized as Breast Cancer Awareness Month. For any individual, young or old, it is important to stay on top of your health because breast cancer does not discriminate. The National Breast Cancer Foundation has educational guides for you and your loved ones. These guides talk about things like the importance of early detection and how to prepare for a mammogram. You can also read about nutrition during treatment and find other types of helpful resources.
