Mammograms cause cancer  

Mammograms cause cancer.

No.
On the contrary, mammograms are a valuable tool for detecting breast cancer early, when it is most curable. A mammogram can detect a tumor as tiny as a pinhead-which is up to two years before you or your physician can feel it!

The amount of radiation during your mammogram is minimal. The benefits of a screening mammogram far out-weigh any associated risks.
