Petition Lower the age for invites to regular mammograms to 30
We think the recommended age for routine mammograms should be lowered from 50 to 30. We believe this change could increase early detection, offer better health outcomes, and save countless lives
More details
We feel that ensuring those under 50 can access the crucial early detection that routine mammograms provide is vital.
At the age of 41, I've been diagnosed with breast cancer. Like many others, I never considered cancer a possibility. Even when I discovered a small lump, I thought I might be overreacting. What if I had dismissed it and waited until the age of 50 for a routine mammogram? So many young individuals are being diagnosed with breast cancer today, and it's not uncommon for them to feel dismissed or misdiagnose their symptoms as something less serious. Breast cancer doesn't wait for you to turn 50.
