Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women — and it is increasingly prevalent worldwide, affecting women of all ages. 🌸

The good news? Research shows that up to one-third of breast cancer cases can be prevented through awareness, early detection, and healthy lifestyle habits.

Here’s what every woman should keep in mind 👇

1️⃣ Self-Awareness & Screening
💗 Do monthly self-breast exams (a few days after your period).
💗 Notice any lumps, shape changes, skin dimpling, or nipple discharge.
💗 Schedule clinical breast exams and screening mammograms as recommended — early detection saves lives.

2️⃣ Maintain a Healthy Weight
Excess body fat, especially after menopause, increases risk.

3️⃣ Prioritize Mental Well-Being & Manage Stress 🕊️
Chronic stress, poor sleep, and toxic environments affect hormones and immunity. Take care of your mind as well as your body.

4️⃣ Avoid Smoking
Smoking increases breast cancer risk and affects overall health.

5️⃣ Stay Active
Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week — regular activity can lower risk by up to 20%.

6️⃣ Eat a Balanced Diet
Focus on fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fiber. Limit red and processed meats.

7️⃣ Limit Alcohol
Even small amounts increase risk — less is better.

8️⃣ Breastfeed if Possible
Breastfeeding offers long-term protective benefits.

9️⃣ Use Hormone Therapy Cautiously
If needed for menopausal symptoms, use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration, under medical guidance.

A few minutes each month to know your body can truly save your life. 💕
Let’s remind every woman we know: early detection isn’t just treatment — it’s prevention. 🌷
