As 1 in 9 women will develop breast cancer, early detection is the best way to fight the disease. The key is to notice tumors before they grow to be potentially deadly; a BSE carefully searches the breasts for signs of these tumors. A special advisory group of doctors created standard procedures for a BSE to assist women in becoming 'breast aware.'

While there is no definition for a normal breast, you should know the symptoms that a BSE searches for. A lump or bumpy area in the breast or armpit A noticeable change in outline or shape of...
