Welcome to Women’s Wellness of SA, where we support you through every step of your breast health journey. We understand how crucial early detection and proactive management are in facing breast cancer. Our mission is rooted in providing you with compassionate support, personalized guidance, and expert medical care as you navigate your breast health.
Breast cancer screening is a critical component of women’s healthcare, aimed at detecting breast cancer in its earliest stages when treatment is most effective. Screening involves various methods, including mammograms, clinical breast exams, and breast self-awareness techniques. At Women’s Wellness of SA, we emphasize the importance of regular screenings as part of your preventive healthcare regimen.
Clinical breast exams are physical examinations performed by healthcare providers to assess the breast tissue for any lumps, changes, or abnormalities. These exams complement mammograms and provide additional insights into breast health. Our experienced medical professionals conduct thorough clinical breast exams to ensure comprehensive screening and detection.
Breast self-awareness involves becoming familiar with the normal look and feel of your breasts and being vigilant about any changes or abnormalities. We encourage all women to practice regular breast self-exams as part of their self-care routine. By being proactive and attentive to changes in breast tissue, you can play an active role in your breast health.
Breast cancer is a complex disease characterized by the abnormal growth of cells in the breast tissue. There are various types of breast cancer, each with its unique characteristics and treatment approaches. Ductal carcinoma and lobular carcinoma are the two primary types, with ductal carcinoma being the most common form.
Early detection of breast cancer significantly improves treatment outcomes and survival rates. Regular screenings enable healthcare providers to identify breast cancer at an early stage when it is most treatable. Through early intervention, we can minimize the spread of cancerous cells and provide timely and effective treatment options.
While breast cancer can affect women of all ages and backgrounds, certain factors may increase your risk of developing the disease. These risk factors include age, family history, genetic mutations, hormone levels, lifestyle factors, and environmental exposures. Understanding your risk profile allows us to tailor screening recommendations and preventive strategies accordingly.
