A member asked:
When is best time to do self breast exams?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Self Exams: I think the best time is once a month in the shower at the same time of the month. Probably about 10 days after your period or if not having periods then just do it on the first of every month. Make sure you check up into your armpit, the tail of the breast is there.
