Breast cancer, celebrities talk about it
In recent years, many personalities have chosen to reveal that they are or have been affected by breast cancer. A way of advocating prevention, sincea “simple” mammogram can save lives. In France, the weather presenter on TF1, Évelyne Dhéliat, or even more recently the influencer Caroline Receveur spoke about it in particular. In recent days, Carla Bruni revealed that she had been diagnosed with this cancer four years ago and Éléonore Gay, host of France Télévisions, explained to Parisian October 2 have was diagnosed eight months ago and having received “shock treatment”. International celebrities like Sarah Ferguson and Shannen Doherty have also chosen to reveal their breast cancer, always with the aim of prevention and calling for screening. I have to say that less than one in two women aged 50 to 74 were screened in 2022, announced the League Against Cancer on the occasion of the start of Pink October. A screening which would be decreasing and which would place France at the bottom of the ranking of European countries. From the age of 25, it is recommended to have your breasts examined by a professional once a yearbut also practice self-palpation to monitor possible anomalies. Although it is rare, breast cancer also affects some men. The earlier breast cancer is detected, the higher the chances of cure.
