Of course cancer screening is a good prevention method. But recently an Australian doctor said that screening for breast cancer in women under 40 is not effective.
Dr. Helen Zorbas, director of the National Breast and Ovarian Cancer Centre,Sidney, Australia, said that celebrities like pop star Kylie Minogue, fashion designer Heidi Middleton and actress Christina Applegate are a good example for that. She thinks that early detection for breast cancer in young women relies almost completely on young women themselves, knowing their own bodies and picking up the early signs of the disease.
