WOMEN MUST AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR GO FOR BREAST SCREENING, BECAUSE BREAST CANCER IS DEADLY - Dr. Advices
Breast cancer is a disease in which cells in the breast grow out of control.

Per medically reviewed by Yamini Ranchod, pH. D., M. S, written by Adam Felman on Aug. 12, 2019, breast cancer is the most common invasive cancer in women and the second leading cause of cancer death in women after lung cancer.

Per this research , Dr. Ishmael Kyei , surgeon at KATH advices women to least take a good look at their breast not to fall as a victim.

Dr. Ishmael, said women should at least run a test at least once a year to see whether she's in good position of not getting breast cancer.

He said awareness of the symptoms and the for screening are important ways of reducing the risk.


According to Dr. Ishmael, said at KATH in every week they record about 8-10 breast cancer cases , a year is almost 500 cases of breast cancer and about 200-250 deaths of breast cancer which is so sad.

In addition, he said doctors cannot pinpoint the actual cause of breast cancer but yet these people are more likely to get breast cancer , genetics factor, hormone treatments, alcohol consumption, body weight sometimes contribute a lot in getting breast cancer.

He urges women to each and every month examine themselves in a mirror and see whether there's a change in her breast and he said breast cancer is not contagious so husbands and family members shouldn't abandoned such people.

He finally urges women to at least once a month go to any Hospital or come to KATH breast clinic for screening , saying you don't need any referral before you go for breast screening.
