Abstract:

Breast Self-Examination (BSE) is the most cost-effective technique for screening breast cancer. It can be easily performed by women to examine any abnormalities or unusual changes in their breast. Breast self-Examination is helpful in monitoring breast health, but it cannot be taken as a substitute for mammography as mammography is considered as a gold standard screening for breast cancer. Breast self-examination should be performed as a complementary practice alongside mammography, which means that it can be done in addition to mammography. The optimal timing for performing BSE for women who

Background: Among female patients’ breast cancer are a growing threat for over a century. In women, breast cancer is the most common malignancy universally such as 154 of 185 nations. Breast self-examination (BSE) is a simple, very low-cost, non-invasive early detection method used to detect early breast cancer, which involves the woman herself looking at and feeling for any change in their breast as early as possible, which yields a better survival rate. BSE should be done for all women older than 20 years. This study intended to determine knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of breast can

Abstract:

Breast cancer is more easily treated and often curable if it is found early, self-breast exam and screening by mammography combined with clinical breast exam is most effective detection method. Breast Self-Examination should be performed monthly in order to discover changes in breast tissue, the onset of pain in the breast area. 80% of lumps are not cancerous. Be sure to do the breast self-examination the same time every month. If you are still menstruating, Kruper recommends you do the exam about seven to 10 days after your menstrual cycle, since at that time there will likely be fewer cycle-
