Check your breasts once a month, look at your breasts in the mirror and check they are their usual size, shape, and colour.

Next, raise your arms above your head and check your armpit areas, looking for any changes.

Report any changes to your GP without delay and attend routine screening if you're aged 50 to 70.

Men’s breasts may look a little difference but the checks are the same. Get your loved ones checking their breasts once a month.
