According to a recent TIME article, breast self-exams are pretty much useless and can lead to more harm than good in the form of unnecessary biopsies. If we continue like this, thousands upon thousands of boobies will be lost!
Stop the madness! Save the boobies!
(seriously, though...this is an interesting lesson in overly preventive measures. Is it becoming easier and easier in our overly dependent society to find medical problems where there aren't any? Can we ever be too careful? Or are these risks we have to take?)
