Breast Examination with Palpbox

Penti, a company that cares not only about women’s needs but also their health, and has been developing projects for this purpose for many years, stands by women during Breast Cancer Awareness Month with PALPBOX, developed in collaboration with MEMEDER, an organization that has been operating for 18 years, to emphasize the importance of early detection in breast health.

So, what is PALPBOX?

Knowing that early diagnosis is vital when it comes to breast health, Penti invites all women to become aware and regularly examine their own breasts with PALPBOX, and offers this product to help them develop this positive habit.

PALPBOX, which features 3 different palpation (manual examination) methods in 3 different box designs, includes illustrations on how to detect breast cancer manually, and presents the first recommended action in breast cancer detection: “How every woman should regularly and continuously examine her own breasts manually, starting from the age of 20, every month after her menstrual period ends.” In addition to the icons and illustrations, women can also use the QR code on PALPBOX to learn how to perform a manual examination and access information on breast health from MEMEDER Board Member and General Surgery Prof. Dr. Videos prepared with narration by Beyza Özçınar are available.
