Lower the age for invites to regular mammograms to 40.

Petition Details

Currently the age for routine mammograms to start is 50. I believe this should be lowered to 40.

Additional Information

I was recently diagnosed with breast cancer at age 41. I have no close family history of any cancer including breast or ovarian cancer. I was lucky to find my lump early and my outlook currently is positive.

During my journey it has become apparent that more young people are being diagnosed with breast cancer. I think it's essential that people are aware of their bodies and have the opportunity to catch this as early as possible. I think this would help save lives.
