Since it's A) a small minority in Sweden that still gets upset about abortions, and B) breast cancer screenings cost $22 and you get called once every 18 months when you're 40-49 (can differ a little between counties) and after that once every two years up to 74 years of age in most counties. And if you're poor, social services will probably pay gladly for you.
As for prostate cancer, a similar screening procedure is debated and will hopefully be in place within a decade or so. I'll for one will let them take the tests on me anyway since I have it running in the family.
