    For your annual breast cancer screening, is it better to have a mammogram or a breast ultrasound?

      Sorry to hear about your bad experience. Mammograms are so important - don't give up on them.

    Comparing a mammogram to eating at a restaurant is just bizarre to me 😂 😂

      I think they are trying to pay for all that expensive machinery they bought. I wonder why doctors don't do the ultrasound first then do a mamography if something shows on the ultrasound. It just sounds like big medicine and tradition to me.

      In Mexico (at least the city I was in), the gynecologist does a full check up including breast exam and ultrasound. No word of a mammogram in the general check up. Transvaginal ultrasound is also done with a pap, urine test & a coloposcopy if needed. All in all it just seems to make more sense. America is behind.
