Signs You May Need Mammography
Screening mammograms are typically done without symptoms as a preventive measure, while diagnostic mammograms are ordered when a patient notices a new lump, skin dimpling, nipple retraction or discharge, or unusual breast pain. A family history of breast or ovarian cancer often prompts earlier or more frequent screening even without symptoms.
