Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
In Mexico there are breast clinics of the Mexican Social Security Institute, designed to perform screening tests and diagnostic evaluation of mammary glands, with the aim of identifying cases of breast cancer in early stages. However, few psychological interventions have been reported during the diagnostic process, so it is important to know the psychological affectations presented by women who undergo these tests. Given this, this intervention has the objective of evaluating the effectiveness of an online psychological care program to reduce psychological distress and increase the sense of coherence in the process of diagnostic evaluation of mammary glands in women who attend a breast clinic.
In the intervention there will be two groups: a) experimental group and b) control group.
The experimental group will receive online psychological care through the virtual platform and the patients in the control group will be given visual material with the information.
All participants will be invited to attend the breast clinic and undergo screening studies and/or diagnostic evaluation. For the assignment of the experimental and control group, it will be carried out through a randomization process through the Excel program.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Experimental group
The experimental group will receive the self-applied intervention through a digital platform. The intervention consists of three stages, depending on the situation of the patient: 1) Patients who undergo screening and obtain negative results for malignancy, 2) patients with suspicion and undergo a biopsy, 3) Patients with positive results for breast cancer.

Psychological techniques based on the cognitive behavioral model, mindfulness, acceptance and commitment therapy, and health beliefs are included.
Control group
The experimental group will receive the self-applied intervention through written visual material that will be given to them. The content of the material will be the same as the experimental group.
