While lowering screening guidelines will be one step forward for people aged 45 and older, it doesn’t address the rise in young-onset bowel cancer, which is the deadliest cancer for Australians aged 25-34.
A 45-year-old today has the same bowel cancer risk a 50-year-old had 10 years ago. Knowing your family history is also vital. You may need to begin screening even earlier depending on your individual circumstances.
