Rainbow Sessions
Breast and chest screening for LGBTIQA+ communities
Breast cancer develops in 1 in 7 people that were assigned female at birth in Victoria. People that were assigned male at birth have a lower risk, but their risk increases when they are on Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) for 5 years or more.
Breast/chest screens can find cancers that are too small to feel. The sooner cancer is found, the more successful treatment is likely to be. That is why we invite women and trans and gender diverse people aged 50 to 74 that have no breast symptoms for a free, 10-minute breast/chest screen.
We have been Rainbow Tick accredited since 2019. This means that our screening services are a safe and inclusive experience for all women and trans and gender diverse people.
For information about screening and eligibility please see our Screening FAQ for LGBTIQA+ people and our Breast/chest screening for trans and gender diverse people fact sheet.
