Could you please let me know from what age I should check my breast up myself
Brief Answer:
self examination of breast is helpful
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,I got your query.I understand your concern.
It is good that you are pretty aware of self examination of breast
In my opinion breast self examination can be done from 20 years of age onwards.
It can be done every month after periods.(As the breast might be tender before periods).
It is done in lying down position for better finding of any lump if present.
It is done by palmar aspect of middle 3 fingers.
Right breast is palpated by left hand keeping the right hand underneath the head and viceversa..
Self examination of breast might help in early detection of any abnormalities if present.
Hope this satisfies your query.
