Breast cancer screening is one of the most powerful tools we have to catch cancer early, when it's most treatable. If you're between the ages of 40-74 and at average risk, current guidelines recommend getting a mammogram every two years.

Every woman's health journey is unique. Talk with your doctor to understand your personal risk and the best screening schedule for you. It's never too late to take that first step toward peace of mind!
