    I was reading a journal article online
    http://jcem.endojournals.org/cgi/content/full/94/9/3132
    This article makes the following recommendation:
    "We suggest that MTF transsexual persons who have no known increased risk of breast cancer follow breast screening guidelines recommended for biological women."


    I was just wondering if Transgendered Individuals in the 50 to 64 year old age group have considered accessing the free Irish National Breast Screening Programme through the BreastCheck service?

    If you are in this age group and have not been called for screening you can either register or contact the screening programme through their website www.breastcheck.ie
