Breast Cancer Awareness Month is a good reminder that knowing your normal matters. 🎀
For women at average risk, ACOG no longer recommends routine monthly breast self-exams. Instead, the focus is on breast self-awareness—knowing how your breasts normally look and feel so you can recognize changes.
Pay attention to changes such as a new lump, skin dimpling or redness, ni**le changes or unexpected discharge, or new/worsening pain. If something feels different for you, don’t wait to bring it up with your healthcare provider.
Know your normal. Notice changes. Speak up. 🤍
