<strong>Abstract</strong> <strong>Introduction</strong>: Cancer has been increasing massively and gaining more concerns as a public health problem in both developed and developing countries. Breast cancer prevalence rates in women outweigh those of other cancers. Globally, 6,70,000 women died from breast cancer. In India 13.5% incidence is reported, ranking it second among cancers in Indian women. Early diagnosis of breast cancer affords a better chance of survival and a better prognosis. Breast self-examination (BSE) is a tool for early detection that involves physical and visual inspections

Abstract:

Breast self-examination (BSE) is done by feeling and looking at the breast itself to see the possibility of physical changes in the breast. This process is carried out so that all changes that lead to more serious conditions can be detected early. Breasts will generally feel different during menstruation. Before and during this period, most women feel that their breasts are getting tighter and denser. Therefore, women need to do a breast self-examination (BSE) every 1 month, to find out whether there is a change in the shape of the breast from time to time. This study aims to determine the lev

Abstract:

Incidence of malignant neoplasms of breast for the last 15 years has increased more than twice and has a tendency for further growth. The efficiency of breast cancer treatment depends first of all on the timely diagnostics because the results of its therapy are mainly determined by the degree of spread of tumor process. Among the methods of active detection of the breast cancer the method of self-examination proved to be the most effective, which is given the highest priority in the WHO oncological program.

Abstract:

Background: Breast self-examination (BSE) is a preventive and easy way for people to keep an eye on the health of their breasts. People who routinely examine their breasts may be able to identify changes or abnormalities at an early stage, which may help in the early diagnosis of breast cancer. This self-care routine encourages an active approach to breast health and actively participate in their own well-being. Objectives of the study were assessment of the knowledge and attitude on breast self-examination among female college students, to assess the major barrier to perform breast self-exami
