Women with BRCA mutations should follow enhanced screening protocols. This includes regular mammograms and MRI scans starting at an earlier age than the general population. For ovarian cancer, transvaginal ultrasound and CA-125 blood tests are recommended, although their effectiveness in early detection is limited.
