Small pet peeve as the annual Breast Cancer Awareness campaign comes to an end: Barring extremely rare medical conditions, all humans are born with breast tissue.
This is tragically under taught in public knowledge, and I hope that that’s one of the things that changes soon. Breast cancer is not solely a gendered condition, so no matter who you are, please please contact your doctor if you notice something unusual going on with your chest. You don’t have to have a large amount of breast tissue to develop breast cancer, but if caught early enough, breast cancer patients have good chances of successful treatment.
Please don’t dismiss symptoms without a medical professional. Checking could save your life.
