Why Should I be Tested
Preventing common and severe diseases
The Common Diseases
In America we hear about these diseases a lot but most of us don't know what it really is or what the consequences are. These diseases are Prostate cancer, breast cancer, and cancer in the cervix.
Perks of Testing
Luckily these diseases are all testable and can be cured in early stages. As a matter of fact, 100% of people who discover they have stage 1 breast cancer live after treatment and 93% of discoveries at stage 2 survive. Also for women with cervix cancer, if you don't discover early enough, treatment will disable your ability to have children.
When should I start testing?
- For Breast cancer at about age forty, once a year
- Prostate cancer also age forty
- For cervix cancer testing should start as early as 21.
