National Breast Cancer Awareness Month

National Breast Cancer Awareness Month is observed every October to raise awareness about breast cancer, promote regular screening and early detection, and support research efforts. It aims to educate women and the public about risk factors, symptoms, and prevention strategies. The campaign encourages women to schedule mammograms and perform self-examinations, ultimately aiming to reduce mortality rates through timely diagnosis and treatment. It also provides a platform for survivors to share their stories and for organizations to advocate for advancements in breast cancer research and support services.
