My friend is having a cancer screening
I just had a general inquiry and was wondering for what reason would someone be requested to have a cancer screening done? My friend that i care about a lot is having one and i dont know why? She is 16 if that helps in any way. Did the hospital ask her to have it done and if yes then what would the possible reasons be?

Routine screening is not advisable don't worry too much , screening has to be done only for certain type of cancer after certain age . No need of it now if you don't have any symptoms just relax.
