The crucial role of early diagnosis in the fight against breast cancer is emphasized

Through a series of events organized in various regions of Turkey, including cities such as DİTAV and Didim, awareness-raising efforts in the fight against breast cancer are being expanded. Experts state that detecting the disease at an early stage is a life-saving factor and urge women to undergo regular examinations.

Statistical data clearly demonstrates the gravity of the situation. According to the data, approximately 70 women are diagnosed with breast cancer every day in Turkey. These figures reaffirm how widespread the disease is and how necessary preventive measures are.

Health institutions increase the accessibility of services for citizens, particularly through free mammography examinations provided by KETEM (Cancer Early Diagnosis, Screening and Education Centers). Experts emphasize the importance for women, especially those within certain age groups, to participate in screening programs without waiting for any symptoms to appear.

At conferences held within the framework of the events, it was noted that early diagnosis increases the probability of successful treatment by more than 90 percent. Doctors recommend that women learn self-examination techniques and remain under regular medical supervision; this is considered the most effective tool in preventing the disease.
