From My Clinic to You: What I Tell Every Patient About Breast Health

by Dr. Sajana K T

Every day in my clinic at Aster MIMS Calicut, I meet women who care deeply for everyone around them, but often forget to care for themselves. As a doctor, I always remind them: your health deserves the same love you give to others.

Know Your Body, It Knows You

Best I tell every woman the same thing: be familiar with your own body. A self-breast examination once a month can make a world of difference. You don’t need medical training, just awareness. If something feels new or unusual, a lump, dimpling, or discharge — don’t ignore it. Early detection is not about fear; it’s about empowerment.

Screening That Saves Lives

A mammogram may take only a few minutes, but those minutes can save a lifetime. Many women hesitate, worrying about pain or results, but most walk away relieved, proud they took charge of their health.

At Aster MIMS Calicut, our breast health specialists ensure comfort, privacy, and compassionate care at every step.

Small Habits, Big Protection

Breast health is shaped by everyday choices. balanced food, movement, less stress, and enough rest. These small acts of self-care strengthen your body and your confidence.

A Message From My Heart to Yours

If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that courage often begins with a single appointment. Every day you care for yourself is the right day to start.

This Pink October, let’s promise to care for ourselves — to make screening a celebration of life, not a symbol of fear. Because when women stay healthy, families stay strong.
