💨 Abstract

October marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month in South Africa, aiming to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and encourage early detection. Approximately 19.4 million women aged 15 or older are at risk. Early detection methods include mammograms, ultrasounds, and breast self-examinations. Self-exams should be done monthly, checking for lumps, texture changes, dimpling, or other abnormalities. If any changes are detected, consult a doctor immediately.
