Observe your breasts in the mirror as you stand with your hands at your side. Look for any bumps or variations in their normal shape.
While standing place one hand behind your head, and begin to feel firmly around the breast with your fingertips. You can do this in a circular motion, an up and down motion, or in a wedge motion, but you need to remember to do it the same way each month.
Squeeze the nipple of each breast. If you notice any discharge and you are not breastfeeding, report it to your doctor right away.
Lie down and place a pillow behind your right shoulder. Extend your right arm behind your head and use your left hand to check your entire breast and arm pit area. Then reposition the pillow and do the same thing for your other breast.
