Get screened

Because cancerous cells may be present in the body well before the onset of symptoms, regular screenings afford the best chance of catching cancer at its most treatable stage. Screenings are typically scheduled by age, but doctors may recommend earlier screenings for certain cancers based on family history, lifestyle, and environmental factors. Talk to your Primary Care or Women's Health provider about which screenings are right for you.
