Tell me if you know what is TLC which related to breasts. This is the meaning of  Touch, Look, and Check. A few years back a classmate sms to me that her mom passed away due to cancer. I do not know which cancer until I spoke to her on the phone. She told me its Breast Cancer.

It is important to examine yourself, I am sure you do not need an hour to do so.

TOUCH your breasts. Feel for anything unusual, such as lumps, thickening, or changes in skin texture in the breast or armpit.

LOOK for changes, such as one breast becoming larger than the other, puckering or dimpling of the skin, changes in the apperances or direction of the nipple, discharge, or a rash forming on or around the nippl. Anything that appears unusual visually should not be taken lightly.

CHECK out anyuthing unsual with your doctor immediately. If a doctor thinks a lump is related to hormonal changes related to your menstrual cycle, he may advice you to wait through one cycle. But if the lump persists or is worrying you, there is no harm in getting a re-examination or an additional test.

You can easily examine your breasts in the mirror or in the shower.
