A Preventable Disease with the Right Screening Approach
Colon cancer can develop in anyone, but certain factors may increase your risk. Understanding your personal risk profile can help determine when to begin screening and how often you should be monitored.
Who is at Risk?
- Adults age 45+
- Family or personal history of colon polyps or cancer
- Inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's/UC)
- Diets low in fiber, high in red/processed meat
- Obesity, smoking, and heavy alcohol use
Proven Screening Methods That Can Save Lives
Colonoscopy
The gold standard. Detects and removes polyps during one simple, sedated procedure. Recommended every 10 years for average-risk individuals.
Fecal Occult Blood Tests (FIT / gFOBT)
Annual stool tests that check for hidden blood—an early sign of cancer.
Fecal DNA Testing (Cologuard)
Detects abnormal DNA and blood in stool. Repeat every 3 years. Positive results require follow-up colonoscopy.
