Recently, the US Preventative Services Task Force changed the breast cancer screening guidelines to recommend starting screening at 40 years old instead of 50 years old.
In this episode of Prescribed Listening, Host Tessa Lackey discusses the latest breast cancer screening guidelines and how they apply to you with Dr. Danae Hamouda from UTMC oncology and Hematology.
We also discuss genetic testing and if it’s right for you, how to know the risks of breast cancer and how to reduce your overall risk.
If you would like to schedule an appointment with Dr. Hamouda or a mammogram, you can call the Eleanor N. Dana Cancer center at 419.383.6644.
