How often should I do a Self breast Exam?

Question

Daniela1982 · Accepted Answer

Give yourself a breast self-exam once a month. Look for any changes in breast tissue, such as changes in size, feeling a palpable lump, dimpling or puckering of the breast, inversion of the nipple, redness or scaliness of the breast skin, redness or scaliness of the nipple/areola area, or discharge of secretions from the nipple.

If you discover a persistent lump in your breast or any changes, it is very important that you see a physician immediately. Though 8 out of 10 lumps are benign, all require evaluation to confirm that they are not cancerous.

Women should perform their breast self exam 7-10 days after their menstrual period starts which is also when their breasts are the least tender and lumpy. If they are no longer menstruating, then she should select the same day of the month (first of the month for example) and mark it on the calendar to remind herself when to perform this self exam. What to look for is a change from last month’s exam to this month’s exam. It is not unusual to have lumpy or bumpy breasts.
If your boobs get treated roughly during sex it should be more often, in my opinion, in case you miss something the first time you check.

It drives me up the wall at some of the answers. Even from people who claim to be medical professionals. Everyone sprouts off breast self exams it's done about your period BUT NO ONE, mentioned that the best time to check is 1 week after your period has ended. This is because swelling due to hormones has subsided. It also needs to be done at the same time each month. That way if there is anything abnormal you would notice the change in breast tissue.

It's a simple and quick procedure and early detection is paramount with breast cancer, so why not do it at least monthly?

Doctors suggest that women should conduct breast self-exams once a month for best results. Choose a day several days after the end of your period when there's less chance of swelling and tenderness.

Every time you take a shower not while fooling around because you need to pay attention so you do not miss anything that could turn bad in the future. It only takes a minute to be safe.

RuthlessAggression · Answer

Every time you're in or out of the shower. That's what they recommend. So, I'd say every other day since that's when you're supposed to shower

Probably once a year. Early detection is another medical scam. The amount of fear they use to scare people with cancer is probably causing lots of cancers.
