General Guidelines. For most women, age 40 should be when you start having yearly mammograms in order to minimize your likelihood of developing advanced breast cancer (â Government Mammography Task Force vs. You â). Some doctors send their patients for a baseline mammogram at age 35, and I wouldnât argue with that.f you or your mother or sister have been diagnosed with the breast cancer gene (BRCA1 or BRCA2) you should begin having annual mammograms at age 25, and annual breast MRI sometimes even younger than 25. Your breast doctor should advise you on this.
