University says women should be advised of their Breast Density!!
South Australia Uni says that women SHOULD be advised of their breast density as it has such a bearing on their 'not so early' diagnosis .... https://www.adelaide.edu.au/robinson-research-institut...

Oh @kittykat that sucks. Sending hugs 🙏.
It should be aged 40 for every woman at least to find out if they do have dense breasts so they can have both mammogram and ultrasounds yearly from aged 40. If a woman's mother had dense breasts that too should enable early screening to detect bc early. I live in qld. I had a mammogram at 40 and from that time my gp said I should have a yearly mammogram and ultrasound but I didn't understand why and I never knew I was in a high risk group.
