Men don't get mammograms. Yes, breast cancer in men is rare, occurring in less than 1%. But that doesn't make awareness any less important. In fact, if they find a lump, men are likely to put off seeing a doctor. And they might even be told to simply "keep an eye on it". This is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. There is no exclusion here. Men need to be part of these conversations and events not only in the context of support providers or effected loved-ones, but for their own health as well. Please check out the link in my comment below to learn about early detection for men. #breastcancerawarenessmonth #menshealth #menhavebreaststoo

Although it’s rarer in men, breast cancer doesn’t discriminate, and awareness is essential for everyone.

In the spirit of spreading awareness this October, we would like to recognize that it’s National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Did you know that breast cancer is the most common cancer among American women after skin cancer? The good news: early detection can lead to successful treatment. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends women aged 50 to 74 get a screening mammogram every two years. If you're between 40 and 49, speak with your doctor about when to start and how often to screen. Let's prioritize health and spread the word! #BreastCancerAwareness #EarlyDetection #SafeHarborCares
