October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Posting Date(s)
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The theme this year is "Together we RISE." When we RISE, we Rally in Screening Everyone.
The PEI Breast Screening Program is available to women aged 50-74 who are residents of PEI, do not have a history of breast cancer or a lump/discharge from the nipple, do not have breast implants, and have not had a mammogram in the last 12 months.
A mammogram is an X-ray of the breast that can detect changes in the breast before you can feel them. This can improve your chances of long-term survival from breast cancer.
You can schedule an appointment without a referral from your physician or nurse practitioner by calling 1-888-592-9888.
