#PinkFridays Get ahead of breast cancer! Though rare, breast cancer does affect people assigned male at birth, men of trans experience and men with different sex characteristics /intersex. Age is an important consideration but risk factors vary. Consult a trusted health provider to improve your chances of survival! . . #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth #MaleBreastCancer #CaribbeanLGBTQ+

#PinkFridays Breast cancer can be beat with early detection! While there is limited information on the incidence of #breastcancer in people of trans experience in the Caribbean, it is important to consult with your LGBTQ+ friendly health provider to assess your risk. . . #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth #transgenderhealthcare #CaribbeanTrans

#PinkFridays #LesbianVisibilityWeek Research shows that cisgender lesbian, bisexual and queer women are more likely to delay life-saving tests and treatment. This may be due among other factors to self-perception and real or perceived bias in the healthcare system. Ask your local #LGBTQ+ organisation about a welcoming healthcare provider near you to check in for screening guidelines. . . #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth #GetScreened #SaveTheTatas #MoreThanPink #InclusiveCare #LVW2024 #LesbianVisibilityDay
