  Self-Examining Your Breasts

  Posted by leah-leilani on August 10, 2020 at 7:00 pm

  

  Doctors recommend that women self-examine their breasts once in a while in order to detect early signs of breast cancer. The proper way to examine your breasts is to place a pillow under your shoulder with your arm above your head. With your other hand, use two fingers to apply pressure to your breasts and the tissue around and under your armpits.

  How often do you self-examine your breasts? Are you able to palpate your breasts or does someone help you?
