Mammograms

I've heard that each time you get a mammogram, it increases your risk of getting breast cancer by 2%. Has anyone else heard this and has it been proven?

I never had a mammogram b4 , and I don't have a clue about what it entails. I guess if u r exposed to any type of radioactive substances though there's sense in it increasing chances of breast cancer one way or the other. never heard this b4 though. It's funny how a drug that cures gluacoma ends up destroying the liver , kidney and every other important organ. Or something for the cold does so many terrible things to vital organs in the body. I really wonder about orthodox medicine a lot of times!!!!
