      It is important to be ‘breast aware’. Being breast aware simply means knowing what your breasts look and feel like normally, being on the lookout for any unusual changes and getting them checked out by your doctor.

      A common method used is ‘TLC’: –

      TOUCH your breasts. Can you feel anything unusual?
      LOOK for changes. Is there any change in shape or texture?
      CHECK anything unusual with your doctor.
