It is the type of examination that we recommend women to do on a regular basis every month and that we want to be noticed by them first of a change that will be able to occur by recognizing their own breast tissue. It is the most important first step to provide awareness of the breast cancer. The studies conducted have shown that size of approximately 50% of the masses found with self-examination that women make self-breast examination regularly a monthly basis is less than 2 cm. It is a very important step for early diagnosis of the breast cancer.

It is recommended that every woman over the age of 20 should examine herself within the first 10 days after the end of her menstruation. It is recommended that the women not menstruating should examine themselves on a certain day of the month. Unfortunately, many women in the society do not recognize the breast tissue because they still do not apply this method of examination and they notice a different structure formed by chance in a very late period. We do not want women to diagnose, it is the job of doctors!.., we only want women to learn and recognize their breast structure through regular breast self-examination. Because we know that early diagnosis saves lives… In the breast cancer, early diagnosis has very important advantages such as a long and healthy life, a better quality of life and protection of the breast in some cases.
