This October, the Rio Grande Cancer Foundation is proud to participate in National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Breast cancer is the second most common kind of cancer in women. About 1 in 8 women born today in the United States will get breast cancer at some point.
The good news is that most women can survive breast cancer if it’s found and treated early.
Here are the guidelines as offered from various trusted organizations.
Talk to a doctor about your risk for breast cancer, especially if a close family member of yours had breast or ovarian cancer. Your doctor can help you decide when and how often to get mammograms.
You can find more information about breast cancer and the events happening this month in our area on our website: www.rgcf.org
Mon to Fri: 8AM - 5PM
Sat & Sun: Closed
