Nope. That's how medical costs get out of control. Routine colonoscopies for 20-somethings is just a waste of money.

High risk? Sure. But the general population, no.

I did mention the available screening, didn't I? High risk is much earlier, for sure, and much more frequent. I'm down to one every 5 years now, plus some routine checks every two.
