Breast cancer is the second most common kind of cancer in women. A mammogram – the screening test for breast cancer – can help �nd breast cancer early when it's easier to treat. National Breast Cancer Awareness Month is a chance to raise awareness about the importance of early detection of breast cancer.
The pink ribbon is an international symbol of breast cancer awareness. Pink ribbons, and the color pink in general, identify the wearer or promoter with the breast cancer brand and express moral support for women with breast cancer. Pink ribbons are most commonly seen during National Breast Cancer Aware-ness Month. We Are Helping Now. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which is an annual campaign to increase awareness of the disease.
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is the federal govern-ment's principal agency for cancer research and training.
