There is a consensus among researchers about the fact that women should be familiar with their breasts butthere is a lot of argument as to how to make them aware of what is normal for them. For over decades breast selfexamination (BSE) was advocated for the same but as an outcome of work conducted by researchers in variouscountires a controversy has been raised in the West. In a country like India, where breast cancer screening isnot popular and limited resources are available we should question what would be the best strategy to makewomen familiar with their breasts to facilitate best use of BSE.
