SQUEEZE IT IN
JOIN THE SQUEEZE IT IN CHALLENGE
“Did you know 65% of women put off their annual mammo appointments? While we’re all crazy busy, that’s just crazy. As two women who lead agencies, we want to stress the importance of focusing on our health, especially when it comes to mammograms. A mammo takes just 15 minutes and is still our best chance of detecting breast cancer in its early stages. Join us in challenging women everywhere to Squeeze It In.”

WHO SHOULD HAVE A MAMMOGRAM AND HOW OFTEN?
While 70% of breast cancers are found in women 55 years or older, it also affects younger women. In fact, about 11% of all new cases of breast cancer in the U.S. are found in women younger than 45 years of age. That’s why early detection is so critical. For women at average breast cancer risk, the American Cancer Society suggests:
• Women ages 40 to 44 have the option to start screening with a mammogram every year
• Women between 45 and 54 should get a mammogram every year
• Women 55+ can switch to a mammogram every other year, or they can choose to continue yearly mammograms. Screening should continue as long as a woman is in good health and is expected to live 10 more years or longer
