The Importance of Breast Self-Examination (BSE)
Breast self-examination (BSE) is a simple, effective way to become familiar with your breast health and detect potential issues early. It is an essential practice for women of all ages, as it allows them to notice changes in their breasts that may indicate the need for medical attention. Early detection of breast cancer significantly increases the chances of successful treatment, and BSE plays a crucial role in empowering women to take control of their health.
