A member asked:

I need to know when should i start going to the doctor to get checked for cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Now!: It is time for you to see your doctor for many reasons, such as checking for diabetes, blood pressure, blood lipids, a physical examination, vaccinations and more. Cancer check will be just one part of your evaluation and at your age you need to establish a baseline for your health issues.
