Dr. Fred Gandolfo, a board certified gastroenterologist, shows how a large polyp is removed during a routine screening colonoscopy. Polyps like this will turn into colon cancer if not removed. Colon cancer screening is recommended at age 45 for the average-risk man or woman. This means that if you have no family history of colon or rectal cancer, and have no symptoms like rectal bleeding, weight loss, abdominal pain, change in bowel habits, and have no high-risk lifestyle factors like obesity, smoking, or alcohol use, you should STILL get a colonoscopy at age 45 to prevent yourself from getting colorectal cancer!
