Hi I have just received my invitation to have a routine 3 yearly NHS Mammogram.
I was diagnose with BC in March 2024 and had my annual follow up mammograms with the breast care unit in March 2025.
It seems that I can have the NHS Screening one too as long as there is a 6 months gap since my last mammogram.
Has anyone else had both in the same year?
What are the pros and cons of having both?

Hi
I was told that there has to be 12 months between mammograms, in fact when I wanted to have my annual one earlier this year I was only allowed to bring it forward by 2 weeks.
I think the three yearly screenings get sent out in error. Your best bet would be to speak to your BCNS or phone the number on the screening letter.
