Understanding, Prevention, and Screening at Shinagawa

Breast cancer continues to be a significant health concern globally, affecting millions of women each year. October, recognized as Breast Cancer Awareness Month serves as a reminder of the importance of early detection, prevention, and proactive healthcare. At Shinagawa Diagnostic & Preventive Care, we advocate for breast health awareness and offer comprehensive screenings to prioritize women’s well-being.

Understanding Breast Cancer:

Breast cancer develops when abnormal cells in the breast grow uncontrollably. It’s imperative to recognize the signs and symptoms, such as breast lumps, changes in breast size or shape, nipple discharge, or skin changes, and seek medical attention promptly if any concerns arise.

Importance of Breast Cancer Awareness:

Awareness is key in the fight against breast cancer. Recognizing risk factors like family history, age, genetic mutations, and lifestyle habits empowers individuals to take proactive measures. Regular self-examinations, routine screenings, and lifestyle adjustments contribute significantly to prevention.

Preventative Measures:

• Screenings: Regular mammograms and screenings are vital for early detection. At Shinagawa, our advanced technologies and experienced professionals offer comprehensive screenings for early identification and intervention.
• Healthy Lifestyle: A balanced diet, regular exercise, limited alcohol intake, avoiding smoking, and maintaining a healthy weight contribute to overall health and may reduce breast cancer risk.
• Breast Self-Exams: Regular self-exams enable individuals to identify changes in their breast tissue and seek medical advice if any abnormalities are detected.
