The Susan G Komen Breast Cancer Foundation has a very informative web site to help women carry out a Breast Self-Exam. The web site includes information in both English and Spanish and contains some well laid out illustrations.

The whole web site is divided into seven themes:

-- Early Detection

-- Information about Breast Self-Exam (BSE)

-- Looking

-- Feeling

-- Variations

-- Conclusion

-- Self-Test

If you click on the beginning of the themes, the web site takes you through the most important points. At Medical News Today we found the web site easy to use and navigate, simple but very informative.

To access the web site, please go to:
