There’s no better time than Breast Cancer Awareness Month to stop putting off your annual mammogram.
There are many reasons why you might be avoiding or delaying your mammogram – you forget to make your appointment, you don’t have insurance, hospitals make you nervous, you’re afraid that it will hurt or to hear the results.
Stop making excuses! Since it is October, now is the time to schedule your annual mammogram. And be sure to ask for a 3D mammogram!

So ask your doctor for a 3D mammogram. And encourage your friends to do the same. Because early detection is still your best protection and there’s no excuse for that.
