Mammograms – Risks and What They Don’t Tell You!

]]>

If you do any research on the Internet, there are plenty of articles that are dated from 2007 that question the pros/cons of mammograms. And now as of November, 2009, a government task force has come out to say that women should not get a mammogram until they are 50. Doesn’t this make you wonder what the real truth is?! So many “integrative doctors” have been saying for a long time that mammograms are not recommended because the exposure of radiation can be 1,000 times greater than a chest x-ray. That alone makes women vulnerable to unnecessary risks of radiation-induced cancer. In addition, mammograms are usually very painful because of the breasts being compressed. This in turn can lead to a lethal spread of any existing malignant cells. Too many times, my wife has come home in tears from the pain caused by mammograms. She has not had a mammogram in several years and now refuses to ever get another one. There really is NO solid evidence that mammograms save lives. Research has shown that adding an annual mammogram to a regular thorough physical checkup of the breasts does NOT improve the survival rates of breast cancer over getting the examination by itself. Every woman should conduct their own research before agreeing to a mammogram. There are new tests called “thermal imaging” or thermography. This is a test that creates a digital map of your body that illustrates heat patterns. The patterns may detect some condition or abnormality. It uses a scanning-type infrared camera that measures the body surface temperature, presenting the information as a digitized image. The thermograms are analyzed for abnormalities that may be signs of disease in your body. Thermograms provide: *Reliable and accurate information for diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis *Exact and objective data from accurate measurements of thermal information *Substantial financial savings over conventional investigations The difference between the thermograms and mammograms is listed below: *Mammograms – show anatomical changes in the breast, detecting masses or lumps in the breast tissue. *Thermograms look at vascular changes in the breast, detecting blood flow patterns, inflammation and asymmetries. All women can benefit from thermograms. It has been shown to be particularly useful for young women who want to monitor their breast health before the recommended age of 40. Every woman should be given the pros and cons and allow them to make their own informative decision.
