🎗️ Self-Care Made Easy: Breast Cancer Awareness & Self-Exams

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month—a reminder of the importance of early detection and proactive self-care. One powerful tool is the self breast exam. By regularly checking for changes in how your breasts look and feel, you can notice unusual lumps, thickening, or skin changes early.

While self-exams are not a substitute for professional screenings like mammograms, they empower you to take an active role in your health. Becoming familiar with your own body builds awareness, confidence, and peace of mind—and can make a real difference in outcomes.
