Before the examination, your healthcare specialist needs information about your medical history including your history of menstruation and pregnancy.
To perform the exam, you have to undress from your waist up. During a clinical breast exam, your healthcare provider checks your breasts’ appearance and looks for changes in size, shape, or symmetry. You may be asked to perform some postures including laying on your back with your arms behind your head, raising your arms over your head, hanging by your hips, and pressing your hands against your hips. These will be helpful for the doctors to find out any differences of the breasts. Also, the breast skin is examined for any signs of rash, dimpling, or other abnormalities. Plus, the healthcare provider will check your nipples by squeezing and pressing them to see whether fluid is building up. If there is discharge, they may collect the sample for microscope examination.
