Breast Cancer Awareness: Dr. Wendy Christine on Why Men and Women Both Need to Check

In this Radio Cape Pulpit 7–9 a.m. insert, host Anton Brink speaks with Dr. Wendy Christine from Integrated Health Solution about breast cancer awareness month (October). They discuss how breast cancer develops, what signs and symptoms to look for in both men and women, risk factors including genetics (BRCA1/BRCA2), the role of hormones and hormone therapy, lifestyle factors such as alcohol and smoking, and screening options including mammograms, sonars, and thermograms. Dr. Christine stresses breast self-examination and the take-home message: know what is normal for you, notice any changes, and act early.



Topic (as stated in the script)
