About us

Women need attention along the breast care pathway depending on their personal risk profile. Every female seven to ten days after menstruation is supposed to conduct a breast self-examination to look for abnormal nodules, redness, fluid coming from the nipples, and orange skin appearance on the breast to ensure she is not at risk or has developed breast cancer. Breast cancer can be treated if noticed at an early stage. Most often, these symptoms are neglected by the victims and are left to escalate leading to more damage. Breast Cancer is the most diagnosed cancer in women, and has led to the death of many women. According to the latest WHO data published in 2018 Breast Cancer Deaths in Cameroon reached 1,400 or 0.67% of total deaths. The age-adjusted Death Rate is 20.15 per 100,000 population which ranks Cameroon number 45 in the world. To curb the problem of late diagnosis of breast cancer leading to an untimely death in many young girls and women, as a result of ignorance of the disease; Check Me is a mobile application that gives directives on how to self-examine for breast cancer, creates awareness and propose nearby specialist and hospitals that diagnose and treat breast cancer. By doing this, we are therefore reducing the percentage of late diagnosis and hence untimely death.
