Overview
Breast cancer is the second most common cancer among women in the United States and results in nearly 40,000 deaths each year. In fact, one out of eight women will develop breast cancer some time during her life. That’s why Mercy Health is here to help women of all ages feel confident and informed about their breast health.
Early detection is the key to survival. This starts with breast self-exams and getting to know what’s normal for you. Having some lumps is natural, and a regular breast self-exam will empower you to detect the early signs of cancer.
Your breasts will change over time with menstrual periods, pregnancy and aging, so as you age, early detection also includes getting a regular screening mammogram.
If breast cancer is detected, Mercy Health offers comprehensive treatment for women of all ages, with all stages of cancer.
