The results of a preliminary study conducted at SMA Muhammadiyah 3 Masaran, of the 10 female students (100%) none knew about the importance of BSE and none had ever done BSE once a month. The aim of this research was to determine the relationship between knowledge about breast cancer and breast self-examination behavior (BSE) among female students at SMA Muhammadiyah 3 Masaran.
