October: Your Prevention and Care Month
October 18 2023 – Entos Lingerie
October 19 is a special day when the world comes together to raise awareness about the importance of prevention and early detection of breast cancer. At Entos Lingerie, we care not only about beauty and comfort, but also about the health and well-being of all women. On this International Breast Cancer Prevention Day, we want to highlight the importance of self-examination and how Entos Lingerie joins the cause.
Self-examination: Your Best Ally in the Fight against Breast Cancer
Self-examination is a fundamental tool to detect possible abnormalities in your breasts. Here are some essential tips for performing a proper self-examination:
- Frequency: Perform self-examination at least once a month, preferably a week after your menstrual period.
- Look in the Mirror: Start by observing your breasts in front of the mirror. Look for changes in the shape, size, color or texture of the skin. Pay attention to any redness, swelling, or abnormal discharge.
- Breast Palpation: Use your fingertips to palpate your breasts. Make gentle circular movements from the outside to the center, covering all the breast tissue. Pay attention to the presence of lumps, masses or noticeable changes.
- Armpits: Don't forget to also check your armpits for swollen or painful nodes.
- Report to a Health Professional: If you notice any changes or abnormalities, do not hesitate to contact a health professional. Early detection can save lives.
International Breast Cancer Prevention Day is a reminder that together we can make a difference. At Entos Lingerie, we believe that beauty and health go hand in hand. We invite you to join us in the fight against breast cancer by performing regular self-examination.
