    I'm so sorry. Your doctor should recommend mammograms as well as another test in the interim to ensure if cancer does visit, it's caught early and dealt with.

    I already get mammograms. I just can't do one while going through IVF.

    oh gosh! I did research on that gene connection many years ago. One of the reasons I work with a breast/ovarian cancer organization.

    Best wishes with the IVF, too, I did that!
