Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers that impacts women apart from skin cancer. Many women do not have symptoms when they have the disease, which is why the American Cancer Society said it is important to get regular screenings.
One way to get a screening is to get a mammogram, which are x-rays of the breast.
For more information about screening tests, go here.
Susan G. Komen also has a Breast Care Helpline, which provides emotional support, and information about screenings, treatment options and clinical trials.
They also offer financial help to cancer patients. To get information about the helpline, go here.
If you went to the Susan G. Komen Race, we want to see photos of your beautiful pink outfits. Your photos could be featured online.
