Perform a breast self exam

Dr Dawn Harper’s guide will give you advice on exactly how to self-check your boobs. Watch this video tutorial and learn how to self examine breasts for any lumps or possible cancer.

I really appreciate this info... I've been meaning to find out for a while now how to self-examine, and now I can/will. I'll also pass this on to all my male friends & family... I think that's a really important message. 290 a year may not be a lot in terms of percentage of the population of the UK, but it's more than enough - especially for those 290!

Thanks again.

I've been self examining since I was 16 and I'm a guy. I've got no hangups when my family physician told me about preventative healthcare that included the breast area as well as the gonads I believed her right away.
