Olivia Munn’s Breast Cancer diagnosis is a crucial reminder to calculate your risk

Actress Olivia Munn announced last week that she’d been diagnosed with breast cancer – a diagnosis that would have been missed if not for her calculating her risk and working with her doctor to act accordingly. Because of her heightened risk, she and her doctor pursued additional screenings, and she found her cancer sooner than she otherwise would have.

How to find out how at risk you are for breast cancer

It’s always scary to hear about someone – celebrity or not – receiving a diagnosis. But the good news is, you have tools at your fingertips to overcome fear by arming yourself with knowledge. The free Know Your Lemons app will walk you through a breast cancer risk assessment, and tell you in just a few minutes so you can start your risk conversation next time you are at the doctor.

The app not only helps you understand your risk factors, but also creates a list of your personal risk factors for you to share with your doctor to do your in-office risk assessment.
