March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month.

Dress in Blue Day is Friday, March 6, 2026

Did you know that colorectal cancer is the second deadliest cancer in the U.S., but it’s also highly preventable?

Three things you need to know:
● Early detection is key: When caught early, over 90% of colorectal cancer cases are successfully treated. Unfortunately, this cancer often shows no symptoms until later stages.
● Screening saves lives: Regular screening starting at age 45 significantly reduces your risk. Several safe and effective options are available, like colonoscopies and stool-based tests.
● Know your risk factors: Some people are at higher risk due to family history, certain medical conditions, or ethnicity. Talk to your doctor to understand your individual risk and to choose the best screening option for you.
