Methods: In this cross sectional study, a total of 202 female nursing and midwifery personnel working in hospitals of Birjand (lasted from July 2015 to September 2015) were selected using the stratified sampling method. The barriers to Breast Self-examination and clinical Breast examination were investigated using a researcher-made questionnaire. The data were analyzed with the SPSS software (V. 16) using descriptive statistic and chi-square test. P values of < 0. 05 were considered significant. Results: The results showed that only 11. 3% (N = 16) of the participants, who performed Breast Self-examination, did it on a monthly basis. IntervalsbetweenCBEperformance in 35. 5% of womenwas5 ormorethan 5 years. Themainbarriers to Breast Self-examination and clinical Breast examination in women were, respectively, lack of time, negligence, lack of symptoms of Breast Cancer/fa?page=1&sort=1&ftyp=all&fgrp=all&fyrs=all" target="_blank">Breast Cancer, fear of potential surgery for cancer, and fear of losing beauty. There was a significant association between age, marital status, educational field of study, tenure, and BSE. History of having a child increases performance of CBE yet results also showed that females, who had a history of benign Breast diseases, were less prone to perform CBE. Conclusions: According to the results of this study, it seems that interventions, such as changes in psychological and educational programs, to increase the performance and knowledge and create a positive attitude towards these methods in females are needed.
