Yet, 2897 women accepted to give answers to the surver questions.Results: The results of surver made was analysed by means of SPSS programme. (Statistical Package for Social Sciences). According to the results of survers, the women are aware that the most remarkable responsibility for examining their bodies belongs to the women themselves.
