Thank you very much for sharing your concerns with us regarding your case.
The term “runs in the family” is loose and does not mean that you are automatically at risk for breast cancer.
However, in answer to your question, most guidelines recommend screening as early as age 30 for women who are considered to be at high risk for developing breast cancer.
Hope this helps shed some light on the issue
Thank you and keep up the hope!
