självundersökning

A self-exam is not a hunt for breast cancer. It’s a way of knowing the normal landscape of your breasts. That way if something does change, it’s easier to find it early.

Hur man gör en självtest

  • Cover the full area from the armpits to the collarbone to the bottom of the ribcage

  • Do a self-exam a few days after your period ends, or if you are not menstruating, on the same day of each month

  • Use three positions to change the landscape of your breasts: lying on your back, bending forward, and standing in front of a mirror
