For women with a family history of breast cancer or other risk factors, Dr. Tripti Saxena stresses the importance of regular screenings. Mammograms and ultrasounds are often recommended for women over 40 or earlier if there’s a known family history of breast cancer. However, even if no symptoms are present, a consultation with a breast cancer specialist can help assess your risk. She offers personalized screening plans based on an individual’s medical background and family history. Regular screenings and self-exams provide an opportunity to detect abnormalities early, leading to quicker and more effective interventions.
