October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
The CDC Breast Cancer Awareness page outlines the symptoms, risk factors, how to lower your risk, fast facts, and more. Although more rare in men, they too can get breast cancer. Get more information on breast cancer at this link.
Importantly, the CDC’s National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program offers free or low-cost mammograms to women who have low incomes and are uninsured or under insured. You can see if you are eligible at this link.
