Wow. I didn't know guys could get breast cancer too. Crazy!

You'd think it was only for ladies...

i appreciate the information

nice

Very wonderful My grandmother is going through her second bout with breast cancer if it weren't for self exams she truly wouldn't be alive

are you kidding me>>>men can be at risk?

1% of cases are men; but it's still worth a feel. let your GF do it for you

i'm 13 but i have big lumps in both right under my niple. is this normal?

I really appreciate this info... I've been meaning to find out for a while now how to self-examine, and now I can/will. I'll also pass this on to all my male friends & family... I think that's a really important message. 290 a year may not be a lot in terms of percentage of the population of the UK, but it's more than enough - especially for those 290!
Thanks again.

ya wish they taught me this in school

I've been self examining since I was 16 and I'm a guy. I've got no hangups when my family physician told me about preventative healthcare that included the breast area as well as the gonads I believed her right away.
