As you may know, regularly examining your own breasts allows you to become familiar with how your breasts normally look and feel and
can help you more readily detect any changes that may occur. Many women naturally have some lumpiness and asymmetry
(differences between the right and left breast). The key to the breast self-exam is to learn how to find changes in the breasts that persist over time.
It is that time once again to do your monthly Breast Self-Exam. We are sending our
monthly "Love Note" because we care about you and your breast health.
Please take a moment and put this reminder on your calendar. If you have a question on the proper way
to do a Breast Self-Exam,

for a step-by-step approach to completing the exam. We also offer Clinical Breast Exams at Breastnet, which can be scheduled on the same day
as your mammogram.
