Evidence-based: https://www.healthnormal.com/colonosc...
Colonoscopy is an important tool in the fight against colorectal cancer, capable of detecting and removing precancerous growths to significantly lower your risk. The American Cancer Society tells us that this procedure can prevent up to 80% of these cancers, a crucial fact given that the World Health Organization ranks colorectal cancer as the third most common cancer diagnosis globally, with around 2 million new cases in 2022 alone.
Starting at age 45, most people are advised to undergo regular screenings. While there's a small risk of complications, serious issues are rare, making the benefits far outweigh the drawbacks.
If you're feeling anxious or have questions about the process, your doctor is the best resource for personalized guidance. Reach out to them to get the information you need to make an informed decision.
