Starting Mammograms at age 40 saves lives. A government committee recommends starting mammograms at age 50. #40not50

[40not50 @40not50]

The US Preventive Services Task Force is proposing that all women at average risk of breast cancer start screening at age 40 to reduce their risk of dying from the disease, according to a new draft recommendation statement.

“These updated, science-based recommendations by the USPSTF for women to begin mammography screening at age 40 are most welcome. However, most lives are saved by annual screening.”
- Jacqueline Holt, MD.

As we approach Mother’s Day remember to take care of yourself and all the important women in your life. Don’t forget to schedule your mammogram. Early detection saves lives. #40not50

An increase in breast cancer diagnoses earlier and earlier in addition to higher mortality rates in Black women caused the USPSTF to change the average age of beginning mammograms to 40 years old instead of 50 previously.

Kudos to @kaufield for spelling it out. Women in all 🇨🇦 must be able to self-refer for mammography screening starting @40not50. Access should not depend on where a woman lives. Early detection matters: it determines the harshness of therapy required, and the chances of survival.

17% of breast cancers occur in the 40s, and they grow faster than on older women. 27% of life years lost are in women diagnosed in their 40s. To find them early: screening mammograms starting @40not50, and supplemental ultrasound or MRI for the 40% of women with #densebreasts.

Great news for women and earlier detection!
