Today was my annual boob squishing, also known as a mammogram. So here I am posing with the mad science machine that I trust to find any signs of breast cancer early enough that the doctors can save me. And here’s a reminder to you or to anyone in your life with boobs, that mammograms save lives. A few minutes discomfort can make all the difference.
@Samanthabwriter Also self exams.
@aspecurian self exams find more cancer than mammograms, and usually sooner (since mammograms start at what, 50 years? & are annual), and cancers can start anytime & some are so aggressive waiting a couple months for you mammogram could be the difference between simple lumpectomy & chemo/radiation
@aspecurian and guys? do breast self exams too, especially if you have female relatives that had breast cancer. you can get it too
