addition:
cancer treatment with natural medicine is not inferior to medical treatment. people in Indonesia use the herbs for the cancer treatment, because the herbs are safer than medical treatment from side effects and the cost is not too expensive. they use plant as “rodent tuber”, “crown god tea” mixed with green tea and tea parasite. this is for people who are afraid of chemotherapy. I hope this info is useful for all.

You are right, it is never too late to learn how to do a self examination. Thanks so much for sharing this info, I had no idea that a change in your skin temp could be a sign nor did I know you were at a higher risk if you started your menstruation early. Great info, I certainly learned a thing or two!
