Breast Awareness Month

Breast Awareness Month is an annual observance in October aimed at educating women and men about the importance of knowing how their breasts normally look and feel. The goal is to promote early detection of breast cancer through regular self-examinations, awareness of unusual changes, and encouraging screening. By increasing understanding and vigilance, the initiative hopes to catch potential issues early, when treatment can be most effective. It's a time to share information, support those affected, and emphasize that being aware of one’s own body is a vital step in maintaining breast health.
