Freakonomics pointed me to a study reported on at the Globe & Mail that says breast self-exams are very unreliable:
The FREAKest Links: Terrorists, Phones and Breast Exams Edition
Via Rebecca Dube at the Globe and Mail: A study of 267,000 women appears to confirm several other long-term studies finding that breast self-exams do absolutely no good in detecting breast cancer, despite the considerable conventional wisdom to the contrary.
Notice that it says, “Self Exams.” This is why I am now offering free breast exams so women no longer have to unreliably examine their own breasts.
All appointments are handled through Carly. 🙂
