But the good news is \u2013 when detected at an early stage, treatment success rates go up to 90%. Women must examine themselves regularly and also seek periodic check-ups with doctors.<\/p>\n<p>Today, we are introducing a\u00a0<strong>special screening package at just \u20b9999<\/strong>\u00a0to make comprehensive breast health check-ups more affordable. This initiative will help women understand their health better and encourage early diagnosis. Cancer is not something to fear \u2013 if detected early, it is treatable.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Community Participation<\/h3>\n<p>The event witnessed an enthusiastic response with around\u00a0<strong>100 participants<\/strong>, including patients, women from the community, and well-wishers.
