It is important that everyone be breast aware. This means knowing what is normal for you, so that you can spot any changes. While breast cancer is more common in women over 50, those under 50 can also be affected.
The sooner you notice a change the better, because if cancer is found early, treatment is more likely to be successful. Get into the habit of looking at and feeling your breasts every month. This will help you to notice any change if it occurs.
