Every October, the pink ribbon reminds us of one thing: breast cancer is far more treatable when it’s found early. At Adesh Hospital, we want every woman to know the signs, get screened on time, and feel supported at every step.

Know the Signs

Your body often gives early signals. See a doctor if you notice:

• A new lump or thickening in the breast or underarm
• Change in the size or shape of the breast
• Dimpling, redness, or puckering of the skin
• Nipple discharge or a nipple turning inward
• Persistent pain in one area of the breast

Not every change is cancer, but every change deserves to be checked.

Get Screened: Early Detection Saves Lives

Mammography is a quick, reliable screening test that can detect breast changes before they can be felt, often at a stage when treatment is simpler and outcomes are better.

Who needs screening?

• Women above 40 years of age
• Women with dense breasts
• Women with a family history of breast cancer

If you fall in any of these groups, don’t wait for symptoms. Screening is meant for healthy women too.

Support Survivors

Breast cancer is not just a medical journey, it’s an emotional one. Survivors and patients need encouragement, understanding, and a strong circle of family and friends. A kind word, a visit, or simply listening can mean more than you think.

Spread Awareness

Talk to your mother, sister, daughter, and friends. Share what you know. One conversation can lead to one check-up, and one check-up can save a life.

Get Yourself Checked Today

This October, make a promise to yourself and the women you love: don’t delay your screening. Early detection means more treatment options and greater hope.

Book your mammography screening at Adesh Hospital.
