Your Breast Health Hub

The William N. Pennington Cancer Institute at Renown is a dedicated hub for breast health. We strive to empower individuals with knowledge, support and leading-edge resources to navigate the journey towards breast wellness. Whether you seek preventative measures, early detection strategies or comprehensive treatment options, our expert team is committed to guiding you every step of the way.

Noticing Changes in your Breasts?

If you are noticing changes in your breast, get a breast screening as soon as possible. Early detection is key for successful treatment. Breast cancer begins when abnormal cells in the breast grow out of control forming tumors that can spread to surrounding tissue and move to other parts of the body. If initial screenings indicate that breast cancer may be present, your doctor will conduct further tests to confirm a diagnosis.

Talk to your doctor if you notice changes in your breasts, such as:

  • A lump or thickening in/near the breast, underarm or around the collarbone  
  • A change in the size or shape of the breast 
  • A change in the color or feel of the skin of the breast or nipple area (such as dimples, puckering, redness, swelling or scaliness) 
  • Clear or bloody nipple discharge  
  • Changes in the nipple, such as an open ulcer, a new inverting of the nipple or unusual tenderness
