October is Breast Cancer Awareness month; consider this your reminder to conduct your own at-home breast check and a catalyst for the continual monitoring of changes over time. Early detection is our best weapon in the fight against breast cancer, which is why taking just 5 minutes out of your day each month to complete your own breast check – and encouraging others to do the same - is significant both for your own personal health as well as the awareness and advocacy of breast health in the overall community. TOUCH, LOOK, CHECK Conducting your own monthly breast check is easy with the New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation’s Touch, Look, Check method; simply follow the three steps below and consult your doctor should you discover any irregularities. #loveintimo #bebreastaware
