Age 40 is when health insurance companies begin covering the full cost of mammograms. However, 40 shouldn’t be the age when women start thinking about breast cancer. Every woman has different risk factors. Genetics and family history play a role, but so do factors like body weight, physical activity, alcohol consumption and smoking. Women who did not breastfeed also have higher rates of breast cancer. More women in their 20s and 30s are being diagnosed with breast cancer. Once-a-year mammograms are sufficient for many women, but monthly self-exams coupled with an increased understanding of personal risk factors helps catch cancer in its earliest, most treatable stages.
