 Finding breast cancer early can mean more treatment options. The American Cancer Society recommends annual mammograms for women over 40 years of age.
Despite this recommendation and the availability of free or low-cost mammograms in the U.S.:
- 40% of women between the ages of 40-64 do not get annual mammograms.
- 36% of women age 65+ do not get annual mammograms.
Screening saves lives by helping find breast cancer early. Finding
cancer early may give you more treatment options, including breast
conserving therapy instead of a mastectomy.
Every woman over 40 should have a mammogram
annually. When was your last mammogram? Has it been more
than a year? Call your mammography facility to schedule it.
