Today is National Mammography Day, a day set aside to promote the importance of breast cancer screening and early detection. When detected in an early, localized stage, the 5-year relative survival rate for breast cancer is over 99%! This kind of early detection is possible through regular screenings, like mammograms.

You can schedule your mammogram at Big Horn Hospital Association today by calling: 406-665-9210

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Early detection saves lives, and it starts with three simple steps:

- Know your normal: Spend a few minutes each month on a self-exam. If something feels or looks different, talk to your doctor.

- Prioritize your annual exam: Professional medical check-ups provide clinical assessments that go beyond self-checks.

- Stay on top of screenings: If you are over 40 or at a higher risk, regular mammograms can catch issues before symptoms even appear.
