Do you agree with the reasons for New USPSTF cancer screening guidelines breast? Why a doctor ever recommended not to teach or advise self-breast exam is.
I read the report from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) has presented.

I know that many women, including young women who underwent two procedures.
I went to live longer and productive lives even had families following either of these procedures. regular mammograms, self breast exam.
My mamo first 30 years. The mother had breast cancer. Wanted a baseline on the file for me.
Note that this is a harbinger of sickness and single payer (their reasoning, it is not profitable). I can understand both sides. I suppose that if the insurance decides not to pay on the basis of new guidelines, then just save your $ and have done anyway (if it's important to you, you will find a way).
As a survivor of breast cancer 46 years old, I'm furious. I found my cancer in a self-examination (one month before my next mammogram is due). I was not a high risk individual, but it happened to me. I know 4 other women under 50 with the disease - all of my work, not where I was treated. I saw my oncologist yesterday - and he did a breast exam. It is obvious that it is not without value.
I do not know why you would not agree
