All girls in school should be taught self examination of the breasts......and encouraged to practice it every month of their lives.......and they should be encouraged to seek help immediately they find anything unusual.

If this was common practice then it is possible that problems would be identified early and lives could be saved.
There is anecdotal evidence that more younger women are being affected by this disease......and men out there...don't look so smug......1% of breast cancers are found in men. OK......so it's not a great amount but it is still possible for it to happen.
