Ladies, we’re 9x more likely than men to find skin cancer on our partners. Self chec would like to suggest that you make a date with your partner each month to have a romantic dinner at home followed by a partner skin-chec. It’s a quick, easy and life-saving act, and you never know what it might lead to once the last mark is chec’d out.
The American Academy of Dermatology’s 2017 SPOT Skin Cancer campaign — “Check Your Partner. Check Yourself” — is encouraging women to check both their partners and themselves for signs of skin cancer. When detected early, skin cancer — including melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer — is highly treatable.
Research has shown that women are nine times more likely than men to notice melanoma on others, which means women could help save their partners’ lives by helping them spot skin cancer. This is especially important for men over 50 as they have an increased risk of developing melanoma compared to the general population. Here’s what to look for.
