I love Angelina Jolie’s very public conversation about breast cancer. She’s made loads of women take notice of the risk and get checked. She’s literally saved women’s lives. But gene mutations and family history aren’t the only things that impact breast cancer risk. The shocking truth is that more than 85 percent of women with breast cancer have no family history of the disease. So you can’t assume, “That will never happen to me!” Exercise, eating correctly and going for all your annual checks is important, but because early detection gives the best chance for cancer survival, you should really be giving yourself a breast exam every single month right after your period.
