A blanket recommendation that every woman needs a mammogram ignores basic anatomy. It is not good medicine.

Body type, breast density, and individual risk profile all change what imaging actually offers. For a lean woman with smaller breasts, a thorough self-exam covers a lot of ground. For a woman with dense breast tissue or higher body weight, imaging adds more value. The one-size-fits-all protocol skips this conversation entirely.

Watch this episode of Intellectual Medicine and build a breast health approach that actually fits you.
