🎀 October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month 🎀
Let’s talk about something that could save your life—or the life of someone you love. 💗
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide. The good news? Early detection saves lives. Knowing which screening tests are recommended—and which aren't—is a powerful first step.

✅ What’s Recommended for Breast Cancer Screening in Average Risk Women:
🔹 Mammogram:
The most effective tool for early detection.
Recommended every year for women aged 40 to 74 (with average risk).
Detects cancer before it can be felt.

🚫 What’s Not Recommended for Routine Screening:
🚫Breast MRI-Not for average-risk women; only used in high risk cases
🚫Breast Ultrasound-Not useful for screening on its own. May be used after a mammogram if further evaluation is needed.
🚫Thermography-There is no evidence that this study can detect breast cancer early or reliably.

Routine mammograms are your best defense against breast cancer. Come talk to us about your personal risk and the right screening schedule for you.
Let’s spread awareness, encourage early detection, and support those affected. 💕

🎗 September is Gynecologic Cancer Awareness Month 🎗

Every year, over 100,000 women in the U.S. are diagnosed with a gynecologic cancer — including cervical, ovarian, uterine, vaginal, and vulvar cancers. While each type is different, one thing is the same: early detection can save lives.

🔍 Know the Signs
Symptoms can be subtle. Pay attention to:
• Unusual vaginal bleeding or discharge
• Pelvic pain or pressure
• Bloating or feeling full quickly
• Changes in bathroom habits
• Itching, burning, or changes in vulvar skin

💬 Talk to Your Doctor
Don’t ignore changes in your body. If something feels off, speak up. Routine screenings like Pap tests and HPV testing can help detect cervical cancer early — when it’s most treatable.

🎀 Spread Awareness
Share this message. Encourage the women in your life to stay informed, schedule regular checkups, and advocate for their health.

👩‍⚕️ Every woman deserves to know the risks, recognize the symptoms, and get the care she needs. Let’s break the silence around gynecologic cancers — because awareness saves lives.

Pro-Nox can help make you more comfortable during painful office procedures, including intrauterine devices (IUD) insertion, colposcopy, uterine biopsy and vulvar biopsy.

Pro-Nox is a patient-controlled pain and anxiety relief system that uses a combination of 50% nitrous oxide and 50% oxygen. It is self-administered via a mouthpiece and is designed to provide quick pain and anxiety relief during medical procedures. The effects are short-lived, and patients can typically drive themselves home.
