The goal of BSE is to become familiar with the way your breasts look and feel to you. Then, if there are any changes you are more likely to notice it earlier, so you can see your doctor as soon as possible.  \n• You can talk to your doctor or nurse about the benefits and limitations of BSE.  \n• This brochure will help you know how to do BSE properly.  \n• Some important tips to remember:  \n• Examine your breasts once a month when they are least tender (usually 5-10 days from the first day of your period).  \n• If you no longer have periods, choose one fixed day each month that will remind you to do BSE.  \n• If you are breast feeding, empty your breasts first.  \n• Call your doctor or nurse if there are any changes.  \n• Remember, most breast changes are NOT cancer, but DO check up to be sure!  \nThe Three Breast Cancer Screening Tests are the following:  \nClinical breast examination by a doctor  \n• Age 20 – 40 ................................. Every 3 years  \n• Age 40 and older   Yearly  \nMammogram  \n• Age 40 and 69   Every 1 to 2 years  \nBreast Self Examination  \n• Age 20 and older   Once a month  \nBreast Self Examination (BSE)  \n2  \nFollow the 7 “P’s” of BSE  \n1. Positions (Standing & Lying Down)  \nStand to look at your breasts:  \nStanding undressed to the waist in front of a mirror in three positions:  \n• Arm relaxed at sides.  \n• Arms raised above head.  \n• Press your hands firmly on your waist.  \nLook at your breasts for any changes in size, shape of the breasts, color, texture of the nipples, skin and direction of your nipples point (notice if there is any retraction of the nipple).  \nObserve any stain on your night clothes or bra from your nipples, especially if only from one side. If there is any change or look unusual, seek medical advice immediately.  \nLying down position to feel your breasts::  \nLie down on your back, so the breast tissue spreads more evenly over the chest wall, making it easier to feel all of the breast tissue.  \nPlace your right arm behind your head. Placing a pillow or rolled towel under the right shoulder (under the breast from the back) may be helpful.  \nUse the finger pads of the 3 middle fingers of your left hand to feel for lumps in the right breast. Do the same way for the left breast.  \nBreast Self Examination (BSE)  \n4  \n2. Perimeter (Where to Feel)  \nThe area to be examined should include all the breast tissue and the arm-pit (as shown on the picture). The breast tissue is divided into four quadrants (parts) plus the area around the nipple. Most breast cancers are found in the upper outer part of the breast.  \n3. Palpation with Pads of Fingers (How to Feel)  \nUse over tapping dime-sized circular motions of your three middle finger pads to feel the breast tissue. Feel a small portion of the breast at a time until the entire breast has been checked. Do the same with the left breast.  \nDo not lift your fingers from your breast between palpations. You can use powder or lotion to help your fingers slide from one spot to the next. Some women prefer to do the exam during the shower because fingers move smoothly over soapy skin, making it easy to feel the texture underneath.  \nBreast Self Examination (BSE)  \n6  \n4. Pressure (How Deep to Feel)  \nUse three levels of pressure for each palpation, from light to deep, to examine the full thickness of your breast tissue. Using pressure is important because the breast is not flat. You need to feel all the way through the tissue to your ribs.  \n5. Pattern of Search  \nThink of your breast as a face on a clock. Start at 12 o’clock and move toward 1 o’clock in small circular motions. Continue around the entire circle until youreach ","cbCainscW07NoNe8","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainscW07NoNe8","pdf",148332,"English","# Breast Self Examination (BSE) - Do It For Yourself\n## Importance and Goals of BSE\n## Monthly Timing and When to Seek Care\n## Three Breast Cancer Screening Tests by Age\n## The 7 “P’s” of BSE\n## Practice, Feedback, and Plan of Action","[{\"question\":\"What is the main goal of Breast Self Examination (BSE)?\",\"answer\":\"The goal of BSE is to become familiar with how your breasts look and feel so that you can notice changes earlier and see a doctor as soon as possible.\"},{\"question\":\"When should BSE be performed each month?\",\"answer\":\"Examine your breasts once a month when they are least tender, usually 5–10 days from the first day of your period.
