I'm a man. I've never had a mammogram. I'm scared, but I think I should get one. What should I do?

It's important to have regular checkups and screenings for cancer, including mammograms. You can talk to your doctor about the best way to go about scheduling an appointment. They may suggest that you start with a screening mammogram, which is a low-dose x-ray of the breast, or they may recommend getting a diagnostic mammogram first.
