Breast Self Examination Breast Self Examination Step One
Step One
Stand in front of a mirror that is large enough for you to see your breasts clearly. Keep your shoulders straight and your arms by your sides or on your hips.

Check each breast for anything unusual. Check the skin for puckering, dimpling, or scaliness. 

Gently squeeze each nipple and look for a discharge.
