Most of us know someone who has faced breast cancer, and it's common to think, "That's not a concern for me right now." However, with a growing number of young women receiving this diagnosis, it's time to start being more aware and proactive about breast health.
In this episode, hosts Meredith Cunningham and Brooklyn Elbert welcome Darla Porter, a nurse practitioner in medical oncology at Covenant Health’s Joe Arrington Cancer Center, to discuss the rising cases of breast cancer in younger women. We’ll explore the importance of early detection, when to start getting mammograms, common warning signs, treatment options, and more. Tune in for expert insight and practical advice for navigating breast cancer at any age.
