National Breast Cancer Awareness Month is commemorated every year during the entire month of October to raise personal and professional awareness about this common illness. Breast cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed among women, and is the second leading cause of death for females behind lung cancer. Men also are susceptible to breast cancer, albeit at a much lower incidence. Early diagnosis and intervention are keys to successfully recognizing and treating breast cancer at its earliest stages.
Think Pink all through the month of October. Breast Cancer Awareness is one of the essential topics to promote throughout October, and is a key women's health issue that continues to draw interest. Metro has you covered with a bounty of pink ribbons, ad-building pages, informative breast cancer articles, and everything else needed to put together themed sections and websites or specialized infographics.
