Cancer screening tests play a major role in detecting cancer early, often before symptoms appear. Early detection can improve treatment success, reduce complications, and even save lives. However, many people are unsure about when they should begin screening and which tests are necessary for their age and risk level.
The right age to start cancer screening depends on several factors including gender, family history, lifestyle habits, genetics, and overall health. While some screenings begin in your 20s or 30s, others are recommended later in life.
