Sunninghill has re-opened - a refreshed space for you.

Because for most women, this isn’t a routine errand.
It’s something you’ve been meaning to do.
Something you’ve put off.
Something that sits quietly at the back of your mind.

The space you walk into matters.
How you’re greeted matters.
How you’re spoken to matters.

We look forward to seeing you soon.

Perimenopause isn’t always obvious.

It shows up in small ways. Changes that don’t follow the patterns you’re used to.

Breasts can feel different.
More tender.
More unpredictable.
Sometimes more lumpy.

For many women, this is the point where “normal” starts to feel less clear.
That’s when screening becomes more useful, not less.

Because when things feel inconsistent, having a baseline matters.

“Why do I get breast cysts?”

It’s one of the questions we hear most often.
Breast cysts are a normal response to hormonal changes. They can come and go, change in size, and feel different from month to month. Some days you’ll notice them. Other times, you won’t.

Cysts can feel concerning. But most of the time, they’re not.

What matters is this: you can’t reliably tell what something is just by touch.

That’s where imaging makes the difference - turning uncertainty into clear answers.

Your body changes. Your breasts do too. And that’s completely normal.

We’re here to support you through it all.

“Why does it feel like breast cancer is everywhere?”

Part of it is that we’re talking about it more.
Part of it is that we’re better at finding it.

We’re living longer.
Hormones play a role.
Lifestyle and reproductive patterns have shifted over time.

But one of the biggest changes is visibility.

We’re picking things up earlier.
More accurately.
More consistently.

What feels like “more” is often better detection. And that changes outcomes.

“What happens if they find something?”
For many women, the anxiety isn’t the scan, it’s the questions sitting behind it.
What if they find something?What happens next?
In reality, most findings are not cancer.

Some need a closer look.
Some need follow-up imaging.
And yes, a small number need treatment.
There is a process.
There are next steps.
You are not left in the unknown.
Fear comes from the gaps of no information or mis-information.
Don’t let fear get in your way.

One of the most interesting parts of our work isn’t just what we see on a scan.

It’s how women speak about their bodies.

How quickly they apologise for them.
How often they downplay what they’re feeling.
How long they wait before saying something out loud.

There’s a lot wrapped up in that.

Breast imaging is clinical, but it’s also human.
And the way someone is spoken to in that moment stays with them.

We don’t take that lightly.

“What actually puts me at risk of breast cancer?”

It’s not one factor.
It’s a combination that builds over time.

Your age.
Your hormones.
Your breast density.
Your reproductive history.
Your lifestyle.
Your genetics - even the parts we don’t fully understand yet.

That’s why screening isn’t one-size-fits-all.

It should reflect you.

You don’t feel it until you do.

In life we rely so much on what we can see or feel.

Pain.
A lump.
Something changing.

But most early breast cancers aren’t picked up that way.

They show up on imaging first.
Long before they become something you can see or feel.

That’s the point of screening - to notice early.

Women talk about skin.
Hair.
Weight.
Hormones.

Almost no one talks about bone density.

Until there’s a fracture.

Osteoporosis is quiet.
DEXA makes it visible.

Breast and bone health are hormonally connected.
Ignoring one while screening the other makes no sense.

Step aside beautiful women.
This one’s for the men in your life.
Osteoporosis is not just a woman's condition.
Yes, it’s more common in women.
But men over 70 are at real risk.
And men over 50 with risk factors are too.
The difference?
Men are less likely to be screened.
Less likely to talk about bone health.
More likely to find out after a fracture.

Bone loss is silent.
Until it isn’t.
DEXA screening is quick.
Low radiation.
Highly accurate.
And it tells us what strength looks like before something breaks.
If there’s a father, husband, brother or friend in your life who shrugs off check-ups,
send this to him.

Breasts are sexualised.
Breasts are aesthetic.
Breasts are judged.

They carry meaning.
Confidence.
Insecurity.
Intimacy.

How you feel about your body matters.

But there’s another truth.
There are changes you can’t see.
Changes you can’t feel.
Changes that happen quietly inside tissue, influenced by hormones and time.

Screening isn’t about how you feel about your breasts.
It’s about what you can’t feel inside them.

Biology moves whether we notice it or not.
