Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer among Indian women, yet it is preventable and curable if detected early. Timely vaccination, regular screening, and awareness can save lives.
HPV (Human Papillomavirus) infection is the primary cause of cervical cancer, but it can be prevented with:
- HPV Vaccination – Recommended for girls aged 9-14 years for the best protection.
- Regular Screening – Pap Smear and HPV DNA tests help in early detection.
- Safe Lifestyle Choices – Maintaining hygiene, avoiding tobacco, and practicing safe sex.
