(WTXL) - It's Breast Cancer Awareness Month and health specialists say focusing on the awareness part is critical.
Screening for breast cancer can help detect it earlier.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends women age 50 to 74 get mammograms every two years.
Younger women should consult with their doctors to determine how often to get mammograms, but, what women do at home also helps detect breast cancer.
Dickey says if you notice any changes in your breast, talk to your health care provider right away.
