Who can undergo this type of examination?

This examination is available to all women between the ages of 30 and 40 years, who want to start a periodical full prevention path, focusing especially on clinical breast examinations and gynecological health. This is an important decade for preventing health problems such as diabetes, heart disease and many types of cancer later in life.

The female breast is an organ that changes with puberty, with the monthly menstrual cycle, and with pregnancy. It also continues to change with age. Most changes in your breasts are perfectly normal and no cause for concern. But some changes need medical attention. Chief among these are breast pain and lumps. Breast lumps come in many forms, including cysts, adenomas, and papillomas. They differ in size, shape, and location, as well as in causes and treatment. About half of all women have lumpy breasts, or fibrocystic change. They are more common during the premenstrual period and usually disappear after menopause. Most lumps are benign and do not signal cancer; however, any time you find a new or unusual lump, have your doctor check it to make sure it is not precancerous or cancerous.
