Can someone please figure out a better way to do a mamogram? That machine pulls and hurts, I almost fainted. Where are you tech people?

It is useful and bearable pain for a couple minutes each year. A mammogram at age 44 found a small cancerous mass. Every year since then I am grateful for an all-clear. Please don't ever delay getting a mammogram!!

The 3D version isn't as bad, but yeah it's not fun. Even worse when your girls are small

If men were getting their testicles smashed the same way, you can bet a better way would be found.

You should try it with implants. AND they make you sign something that says you understand they can be ruptured during the procedure...

I was terrified when I had mine, it was my first time. And it was virtually painless. The tech did inform me they were using the latest equipment and technology.

I had the same experience. Had my first last year & was terrified bc I'd heard stories. But luckily it was just uncomfortable pressure & the whole thing was over fast! I mustve had a good tech. I wonder if breast size is the difference. I'm larger w dense tissue.

A dude definitely created that torture device. Every time I get one, I'm picking my titties up off the floor for the remainder of the day.

Well, it was easier than my chemo, surgery & radiation were so I actually look forward to my follow up scans every year. Think of yourself as a bad-ass beating cancer before it gets you--it helps.

If it smashed male body parts regularly. ..we'd have a solution already.

It does hurt & it is uncomfortable but oh...just take a Tylenol 🤨

(Yes, I know males get breast cancer)
