Checking out your own breasts isn't as much fun, but it could save your life.

Sadly 120 women are diagnosed with breast cancer the UK each day
here at cancer center UK, we are looking for ways to beat breast cancer
Today I am going to show you how to be breast aware
With the help of my lovely assistant Tommy
When looking at you own breasts it is often helpful to stand in front of a mirror
Another good time to check is when you are in the bath or in the shower
but really it is about what ever you find most comfortable
being breast aware is about knowing what is normal for you
all breast are naturally different sizes
but you need to look out for any noticeable changes
anything that stands out as being different
for example
have the breasts changed size or shape
is there a rash on the skin
or any swelling
or any dimples
does the nipple look normal
has it changed position or is there any discharge
thanks Tommy you can relax
You also need to be aware of how your breasts feel
is there any unusual pain or acing
do you feel okay Tommy
great
and its also important to feel for any unusual lumps or thinking of tissue
and there is no particular way of doing this other than just have a really good feel
Thank you Tommy
Being breast aware is important for all women
most changes are not caused by cancer
but its a good idea to report anything unusual to you doctor
