Description

Cynthia Thurlow breaks down the conflicting information around mammograms, cancer risk and screening choices so women can make empowered, evidence-driven decisions about their breast health.

We cover:

  • If mammograms remain the gold standard for breast cancer screening

  • The radiation reality and should we be concerned

  • Is there really overscreening and overdiagnosing

  • The limitations of alternative screening services

  • The real lifestyle drivers of breast cancer risk that deserve attention
