âDeaths from colorectal cancer have been going down over the past 10 years, and probably 50 percent of that reduction is due to screening.â. Guidelines say that at age 50, everyone should consider having a screening test for colon cancer. (About 90 percent of new cases and 95 percent of colon cancer deaths occur after age 50.) Screening are a test for blood in the stool, repeated annually; an exam with a thin, flexible tube called a sigmoidoscope every five years; or a colonoscopy every 10 years.
Most doctors agree that everyone age 50 and older should have a routine colonoscopy. The next one depends on what the doctor finds. If you are all clear, without a single polyp or other growth, and you continue to be symptom-free, then you probably donât need another procedure for at least 10 years.ost doctors agree that everyone age 50 and older should have a routine colonoscopy.
