Breast Cancer Risk & Screening Checker
1 in 7 UK women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. Check your screening pathway and risk factors in 30 seconds.
The Breast Cancer Risk & Screening Eligibility Checker helps women evaluate age, family history, and symptoms to determine screening recommendations. Routine NHS mammogram invitations start at age 50 every 3 years, while women with a strong family history or BRCA gene mutations may qualify for early screening from age 30 to 40.
How do you evaluate your breast cancer risk and screening eligibility?
