[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some medical groups recommend waiting til 45 or 50 if you don’t have risk factors. Most of the physicians I know say we are massively over screening and it isn’t resulting in better outcomes but most women I know who are not physicians are going every year.[/quote] The problem is that nearly everyone knows someone who either caught it early, or waited and didn't. And the majority of breast cancer patients have no known genetic link so you are basically rolling dice. I don't know how the "better outcomes" are being measured but nobody wants to be the person who could have caught it and didn't.[/quote]
