Fashions Fashions When breast and cervical cancers are found early, you may have more choices in your treatment. To find breast or cervical cancers early, it is important that you get regular exams. You may be able to get these exams at low cost or no cost at the Cleveland County Health Department through the NC Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Program (BCCCP). BCCCP offers free or low-cost cancer screenings and follow-up to eligible women in North Carolina. If treatment is needed, it may be covered by Breast and Cervical Cancer Medicaid (BCCM) if you qualify. BCCCP offers Pap Smears and Mammograms (if age appropriate). There are eligibility requirements for the BCCCP program such as you must have little or no health insurance, no Medicaid and meet household income guidelines. Call the Cleveland County Health Department at 704-484-5208 to see if you are eligible. Do You Need Breast or Cervical Cancer Screening? Early detection of breast cancer is the single-most effective way to beat the disease. That is why it is essential for women to conduct their own breast exams to discover any potential anomalies early on. While doctors stress the impor- tance of self-examination, many women still show up for routine wellness visits admitting they don't do examinations because they sim- ply don't know how. Perhaps because the practice was given the formal name "breast self-exam." Today, however, doctors tell women to have "breast self-awareness." That means women don't have to follow a set protocol regarding checking for breast changes, and simply being aware of how the breasts look and feel is key. Why the change in the formalities? Doctors have determined that most women notice a lump in their breasts while doing routine activities, such as bathing or dressing. Lumps can be found simply by touching the breasts in any pattern, as long as the entire breast is checked. Follow these guidelines. • Breasts are best checked for changes directly after a menstrual pe- riod. Breast tissue will be softer and less tender due to diminishing hor- mone levels. • Look at the breasts every day and notice their appearance and shape. Recognizing subtle differences can alert a doctor if something is amiss. • Be conscious of these changes: - changes in breast size, shape, skin texture, or color - dimpling or puckering of the breast - discharge from the nipples - scaliness of the skin - nipple pulling to one side - lump or mass in the breast - enlarged lymph node under the arm Any changes or questions about breast condition should be promptly brought up with a doctor. • Women should know their risk for breast cancer. While there isn't a defi nitive genetic correlation, the high rate of breast cancer in one family may mean a particular woman is more at risk. • Get routine screenings at a doctor's offi ce. Women over the age of 40 should get a mammogram every year.
