Each year between October 1-31, events are organized as Breast Cancer Awareness Month to draw attention to breast cancer and conduct screenings. The most common type of cancer in women is breast cancer. Early diagnosis is important in breast cancer, and women can detect cancer at an early stage with breast self-examination. In this context, breast cancer risk groups, symptoms, early diagnosis, breast self-examination were explained in the event for women, and the pink ribbon, the symbol of breast cancer, was presented.
