We hope this information has answered many of your questions
about breast changes and the early detection of breast cancer. However, no
information on the world wide web can take the place of talking with your
doctor. Take any questions you have to your doctor. If you don't understand the
answer, ask her or him to explain further.
Many women find it helpful to write down their questions ahead
of time. Here is a list of some of the most common questions that women have.
You may have others. Jot them down as you think of them, and take the list with
you when you see your doctor.
- How often should I schedule appointments with you?
- How can I tell which lumps are not normal?
- What kind of lumps do I have?
- Do I need to have a mammogram? When? How often?
Or if
not, why not?
- Is there anything in my background that indicates I should
have mammograms more often than your usual recommendations?
- Where should I have my mammogram?
- Did you receive the results of my mammogram? What does the
report mean?
