Is 21 years old too young to get screened for breast cancer?

It’s breast cancer month and I heard about getting free thermal imaging breast cancer screenings in the newspaper. I don’t have a history of breast cancer in the family, but I thought it would be cool to bring my mom with me to get screened. My only concern is taking up doctors time because I am only 21 and should have healthy breasts. Should I be concerned about getting screened? Do you think its too young?
