Over 45? It's Time For a Colonscopy
We would like to remind you that regular screening is the best way to prevent colon cancer. Colon cancer screening should begin at the age of 45 for both men and women.
If you have a history of family history of colon cancer or pre-cancerous polyps, you may have different screening guidelines. Talk with your health care provider to find out when you should start getting screenings.
Colorectal Cancer Screening Guidelines
Huntsman Cancer Institute and 麻豆学生精品版 recommend you start screening for colorectal cancer at age 45.
Talk to your provider about what cancer screenings are right for you. Screening recommendations differ if you have higher-than-average risk and a family history of colorectal cancer. You may need additional screening exams.
Risk factors for colorectal cancer include:
- a personal or family history of colorectal cancer or colorectal polyps, including if it was found in a family member younger than age 45;
- personal history of inflammatory bowel disease, such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease; and
- a genetic syndrome such as familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) or hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (Lynch syndrome).
Our team at The Family Cancer Assessment Clinic at Huntsman Cancer Institute helps you find out if genes play a role in your personal or family health history.
