Some of the best breast cancer sites
October is breast cancer month so before you pin on your pink ribbon and head out to enjoy a lovely fall day, take a look at a few facts and sites, and learn a bit more about the disease. Risk factors include lifestyle habits like drinking alcohol and smoking, and heredity also influences whether or not you'll get the disease. The good news is you can work to prevent breast cancer by eating a healthy diet, limiting alcohol intake and not smoking.
If you're interested in learning a lot more about breast cancer, take a look at some of the sites listed in this piece. As it's a Canadian article, many of the websites are Canadian but the information listed applies to women everywhere. Two sites mentioned in the article that I found interesting were the Breast Cancer Support Services Inc and the Breast Self-Exam website.
The first offers a range of frequently asked questions (with answers) about the disease as well as help on how to deal once you've been diagnosed. The latter gives step-by-step instructions, along with illustrations, on how to examine your own breasts in order to find any suspicious lumps.
Do you know of any helpful sites that you can share?
