Open petition: Review the NHS breast screening age

Created by Elle Williams
Closes on

Review NHS breast screening and ensure women with possible breast cancer symptoms, including those mistaken for menopause, receive timely investigation regardless of age.

Women under 50 can develop breast cancer, yet symptoms may be dismissed because of age or mistaken for menopause. Earlier diagnosis could save lives.
