[00:00:00]Cancer doesn't [music] wait for a convenient time. The screening shouldn't either. 60% of breast cancer cases in India are diagnosed [music] in stage three or four. In countries with organized screening, that number is under 20%. Here's what [music] stage three means and why I want every woman watching this to understand the difference that every six months [music] make. Stage three means the tumor has locally advanced in size and has spread to the lymph nodes in [music] the armpit, but it has not yet spread to the other organs of the body. But we don't want to reach till this stage, [music] right? We want to catch the tumor when it is less than 2 cm. That will be stage one. So, to achieve this, you must do a self-breast examination [music] every month after the age of 40. You should also do a yearly mammogram and check with your breast surgeon.
