Liv The Revolutionary Breast Self-Exam Kit
Thought I would share this info with you in case you haven't heard of it.
I've heard this is a great aid for breast self-exams. It came out a few years ago, but now it is a little harder to find in the USA, but it is still sold and used around the world. It varies in price, so make sure you shop around.
It's for every woman and every man. The Liv Kit is the namesake of Olivia Newton-John, a breast cancer survivor and now activist. The Liv Aid is a revolutionary breast self exam tool that dramatically enhances your ability to feel changes in your breast.
It is made of a soft, transparent, latex-free polyurethane and filled with a non-toxic lubricant, the Liv Aid allows your fingers to glide smoothly across your breast, enhancing your ability to feel small lumps. The Liv Aid is a remarkable touch-enhancing tool. By reducing friction between your fingers and skin, it dramatically enhances sensitivity. It's like a magnifying glass for your finger tips.
