Because we have crappy weather here all the time lol, there are only a few good days a month to tan. And there are only a few months when its warm enough here so I tan about 12 times a year. I apply sunscreen 20 minutes before I go out and I reapply it every 10-15 minutes. So if I go out 2 or 3 times a month for 30-40 minutes at a time, what are my chances of getting skin cancer?

i have no idea but you should maybe stop getting a tan each month hey maybe you should only get a tan once a year that way you won't have alot of chances of getting a skin cancer each month
