Women!! Come closer.
How many times do you do SELF BREAST EXAMINATION or do you even do it at all?🫣
Performing a breast self-exam (BSE) isn't about being a medical expert; it’s about becoming an expert on your own body.
Think of it like knowing the "baseline" of your favorite song, once you know how it’s supposed to sound, you notice the second a single note is off.
WHY IT MATTERS
Empowerment: it shifts you from being a passive observer to an active participant in your health.
Early detection: many women find lumps or changes themselves first. Early detection significantly improves treatment outcomes.
WHEN TO DO IT
Timing is everything because hormones can make breast feel naturally lumpy or tender at certain points in the month
- three to five days after your period ends
- if you are post menopausal pick a consistent date each month
-If you are pregnant or nursing, you can do it after feeding or pumping.
