Skin cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the US, and experts estimate that one in five Americans will develop skin cancer in their lifetime. Taking a few minutes to look over your skin can help you notice changes early, when they’re most treatable. A simple monthly check can make a meaningful difference. Look for:

Spots or moles that change in size, shape, or color

New growths that don’t look like the rest

Sores that don’t heal

Your skin tells a story—paying attention helps you protect your health and catch concerns early. Make today the day you check in with yourself.

It's Women's Health Week--early detection is the best tool we have for fighting cancers that are often found in women. The American Cancer Society recommends:

Breast Cancer:
Age 40 to 44: Patients have the option to begin screening with a mammogram annually.
Age 45 to 54: Annual screening with a mammogram is recommended.
Age 55 and older: Patients can switch to a mammogram every other year or continue yearly mammograms. Screening should continue as long as the patient is in good health and expected to live at least 10 more years.

Cervical Cancer:
Age 25 to 65: Patients should have a primary HPV test every five years, or the HPV + PAP co-test every five years, a self-collected HPV test every three years, or a PAP test every three years.
Age 65 and older: Patients may be able to stop screening. For most screening methods, you can stop screening if your last two tests have been normal. If you are screening with the Pap test, you can stop if your last three tests have been normal.
