Routine breast screenings

Overview

The Vanderbilt Breast Center at One Hundred Oaks is committed to helping our patients maintain breast health at every age. Self awareness is very important in maintaining breast health. Women should know how their breasts feel and look on a normal basis, and if there are any changes, contact a health care provider. For women in their 20s, breast self-exams are an option. Women in their 20s and 30s are encouraged to receive a clinical breast exam about every three years. Yearly clinical breast exams and mammograms are recommended for women 40 years and older for as long as a woman is in good health.
