We just love this incredible website, Know your lemons, set up by Corrine Beaumont, that takes fruit as its inspiration for teaching about the signs of breast cancer. Its images and other materials tell you quickly and simply what to look out for and what action to take. The video above takes just 3 minutes to tell you everything you need to know. Such a simple idea but so affective. We’ll let the images do the talking… They’re a lot more helpful than a pink ribbon.
When you are investigating a symptom, it helps to know your testing options and the usual steps to take. The Know Your Lemons app helps you understand how to prepare for each test (doctor visit, mammogram, ultrasound, breast MRI, and biopsy) and when to go. The goal? Help you investigate symptoms, get screened, and improve early detection for breast cancer.
