91% of Polish women aware of breast cancer risk, yet only half get regular check-ups

Research shows 91% of Polish women know that early detection of breast cancer saves lives, yet only 48% regularly perform breast self-examinations or attend screenings. The barriers are no longer awareness, but long waiting times, fears about costs, anxiety about a diagnosis, and not knowing what steps to take after finding an abnormality. Experts warn that awareness without action does not translate into lives saved.
