Pink October: 5 questions to better understand breast cancer screening
Demystifying prevention and screening
When should screening start?
Organized screening begins at age 50, but a personalized plan may be recommended earlier if you have a family history or specific risk factors. The key is to talk with your GP or gynecologist to set a timeline that fits you.
Which exams are involved (mammogram, ultrasound)?
The mammogram remains the reference exam, supplemented when needed by an ultrasound or MRI. Each test serves a precise purpose: confirming a concern, monitoring an anomaly, or refining the diagnosis. Docnkit explains every step and helps you prepare the right questions beforehand.
