Cervical Cancer Screening | Dr Payal Agarwal [Video]

Cervical cancer screening is essential for early detection and prevention. The primary methods include the Pap smear and HPV testing. A Pap smear detects precancerous changes in cervical cells, while HPV testing identifies the presence of high-risk human papillomavirus strains linked to cervical cancer. Regular screening, starting from the age of 21, can significantly reduce the risk of developing cervical cancer by catching abnormalities early. It’s crucial for women to follow their gynecologist’s recommendations for screening frequency to maintain optimal reproductive health and prevent potential complications.
