Before a mammogram, avoid applying deodorants, antiperspirants, lotions, powders, or perfumes on your underarms or breasts, as these can appear as white spots on the X-ray and interfere with the results. Additionally, try to schedule your mammogram for a time when your breasts are least likely to be tender, such as a week after your menstrual period, to minimize discomfort.
