Colorectal cancer is the 3rd most diagnosed cancer in the US. But the good news is there are more than 1.5 million survivors of colorectal cancer in the United States. Because colorectal cancer is preventable with screening. Colorectal cancer doesn't always show symptoms—that's why it's so important to get screened. If you're 45 or older, it's time to get screened. Find any potential warning signs of colon cancer early, when treatment is most effective. Talk to your provider about scheduling your colonoscopy.

Colon cancer is highly treatable when detected early and in many cases, preventable through routine screening. Even so, many people put off screening or dismiss early symptoms because they seem mild, embarrassing, or easy to explain away. Knowing what’s normal — and what isn’t — can help you decide when it’s time to see a provider.

Recognizing early warning signs and understanding when screening is recommended can make a meaningful difference in protecting your health.
