Breast cancer affects millions of people worldwide, and every experience is different.
Breast cancer is also not exclusive to women.
Although it predominantly affects women, it can also develop in men.
Male breast cancer is rare, but awareness remains important, as symptoms may be overlooked or recognised later.
Changes in breast tissue, regardless of gender, should be discussed with a healthcare professional.
Understanding the signs, being aware of personal risk factors and following appropriate screening recommendations are important steps in taking care of our health.
Equally important is ensuring that people affected by breast cancer feel supported, that their experiences are acknowledged.
Yesterday, we took a moment at the office to recognise Breast Cancer Awareness Month, raising awareness of the importance of early detection, continued research and support for those affected by breast cancer.
Awareness needs to lead to understanding, support and action, not just for one month, but all year round.
