The Young Woman's Breast Health Book

Every young woman is inundated with messages about her breasts. Too big, too small, wrong size or wrong shape. Most frightening: they'll be the death of her. Women everywhere have heard the statistic: 1 in 8 women will get breast cancer.

But most changes in the breast are not cancerous. Educator and nurse practitioner Kerry Anne McGinn helps sift through the noise with The Young Woman's Breast Health Book.

McGinn provides knowledge about non-cancerous changes that every young woman should know. Her decades of professional experience and her own personal search for answers come together in this practical, approachable discussion of lumps, breast pain, self-examination, imaging techniques, and more. McGinn explains how women can become informed members of their own healthcare teams.

The Young Woman's Breast Health Book distills the key knowledge that young women need: when to relax, when to worry, and what to do.
