BDMS Encourages Breast Cancer Screening for Women of All Ages at Affiliated Hospitals

Bangkok / 15 September 2025 – Bangkok Dusit Medical Services Public Company Limited (BDMS), a leading private hospital network, invites women of all ages to take proactive steps in safeguarding their health and preventing the leading silent threat among Thai women - breast cancer – in recognition of the World Breast Cancer Day, observed annually on October 7.

To mark this occasion, BDMS is launching the “CHECK to PROTECT” campaign, featuring the BDMS Breast Cancer Screening Package under the concept Aware, Alert, Alive – Best to Check, offered at a special price of THB 2,900. The package will be available for purchase from 16 September to 31 October 2025 and can be redeemed for screening until 15 November 2025 at BDMS network hospitals, including Bangkok Hospital Group, Samitivej Hospital Group, BNH Hospital, Phyathai Hospital Group, and Paolo Hospital Group.

Breast cancer is a major public health concern in many countries and continues to grow in severity each year. According to the World Health Organization, there are approximately 2.3 million new cases of breast cancer globally each year, with around 685,000 deaths annually. It is the most diagnosed cancer among women worldwide. The impact of breast cancer extends beyond the individual, affecting families, communities, and contributing to significant healthcare costs.

In Thailand, breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer among Thai women. Data from the National Cancer Institute indicates that there are over 20,000 to 22,000 new cases annually, with more than 4,800 deaths each year. However, early detection and timely treatment significantly increase the chances of a full recovery.

Breast cancer can arise from various causes. Regular self-examination is highly recommended, and any abnormalities should prompt immediate consultation with a physician. Women aged 40 and above are especially encouraged to undergo regular risk screening, as early detection greatly improves treatment outcomes.

The BDMS Breast Cancer Screening Package includes a consultation with a specialist and diagnostic imaging using Digital Mammography and Ultrasound. Screening procedures may vary by hospital. This package is ideal for women aged 40 and above and serves as a preliminary step in prevention, care, and treatment planning under medical guidance.

For more information, please contact any hospital in the BDMS network hospital before 31 October 2025.
