Every year, the month of October is celebrated as a month for cancer awareness; specifically, breast cancer. Survivors and healthcare professionals take to the internet to educate the public on breast cancer and its preventive measures. #PinkOctober usually leads to empowering trends and movements that encourage the normalisation of conversations around breast cancer.
October is here and people on social media have already begun the awareness-raising campaign.
The Main Takeaway From Breast Cancer Awareness Month Is That Early Detection Can Save Lives
