Techniques for Monthly Self Breast Exams
In a time when cancer prevention is more important than ever
before, women all over the world are doing everything they
can to protect their health. Most gynecologists and the
American Cancer Association recommend women do monthly self
breast exams beginning at the age of 20, throughout the rest
of their life.
Doctors suggest these exams because they say when women
regularly examine the area, they become more aware of what?s
normal and what?s new. Any changes (masses, lumps, appearance)
are often easily detected by women who do monthly self breast
exams. Detecting these changes is important, as changes can be
early signs of cancer. It?s important to say, most of the time
changes don?t necessarily mean you have cancer. But, all
changes should be reported promptly to your doctor.
When should you perform self breast exams?
It?s a good idea to perform your self breast exams at the same
time each month. Some women go through the routine the week
after their period, when their breast area is not swollen or
tender. Those who no longer have periods can set a date, such
as the 1st of the month and do the examination every month on
that particular date.

How to do a self breast check:
Step 1: Stand in front of a mirror (shirtless/braless) with
your arms at your sides. Look at your chest to see if any
changes should be noted. Then, stand with your hands on your
hips and look for changes. Lastly, raise your arms and flex
your chest muscles, looking for changes.
Step 2: Check out the appearance of your breasts, looking for
changes in contour, swelling, dimpling of the skin and the
nipple. Most women don?t have ?matching breasts? and will
notice changes from one to the other. But, you will know
what?s normal for you and what?s not.
Step 3: Use the pads of your fingertips to firmly (no pain
should occur) on your breast area. Check your entire breast
and armpit. You can use a circular motion, an up-and-down
motion or a wedge pattern motion. Whatever motion you choose,
be sure to use the same one each month on both breasts. Use
whichever one is easiest for you to remember.
Step 4: Lay down and start with the right breast. Put a
pillow under your right shoulder and place your right hand
under your head. Do the same fingers motion and procedure on
the breast again, which you did standing up. Repeat for the
left breast, checking all tissue during the screening.
Step 5: In a gentle way, squeeze each nipple and report any
discharge which may occur immediately to your doctor.
It?s important to see your doctor for exams each year and
follow their recommendations on getting a mammogram to check
the breast area and lymph node areas. Remember, even if you
have a lump diagnosis, it?s likely it?s benign and rarely
will turn out malignant.

AbExerciser Ball
Like The Bender Ball, But At A Savings...
List Price: $9.99
DEAL PRICE: $7.99

A primary benefit of exercising with a Bodytrends exercise ball
as opposed to exercising directly on a hard flat surface is that
the body responds to the instability of the ball to remain
balanced, engaging many more muscles to do so. Those muscles
become stronger over time to keep balance. Most frequently, the
core body muscles - the abdominal muscles and back muscles - are
the focus of exercise ball fitness programs.
FEATURES:
- Includes Air Pump
- Anti Burst 9" Exercise Ball
- Burst resistant heavy gauge PVC vinyl for durability
- Ball can be used at home, in the gym, or clinic
- Increase stability and flexibility
Grab one for $7.99 or save an additional $2.00 and get two
(give one as a gift!) for $13.98
