Cannot agree more. We need breast cancer risk assessment before age 25. Otherwise we will be missing the opportunity to screen earlier for those at INCREASED risk of breast cancer! #bcsm #breastcancer

Also want to put in a plug for EARLY risk assessment, ie no later than 25 with your pcp or gyn. Rec to begin at 40 is for women at AVERAGE risk. If you are at high risk for breast cancer, you may need to start sooner. @DrCEdmonds @Kathie_JosephMD advocated for this recently:

If you are overdue for your mammogram due to COVID, please schedule your mammogram. We are taking extra precautions. Equipments are throughly disinfected after every use, appointments are more spread out, and temperature checks required. #breastcancer #bcsm #mammogram
