Cancer of the cervix. Screening and the HPV vaccine can prevent most cases.
“Only women who have many partners get cervical cancer.”
Why people believe it
People link the cervix only to sexual behaviour.
Tap to see the truth
HPV is common. Most sexually active people meet it. Screening and vaccines protect everyone who needs them.
What to do
Get screened when invited. Ask about the HPV vaccine for young people in your family.
“If I feel well, I do not need a cervical screening.”
People wait for pain before they visit a clinic.
Early cervical changes often have no pain. Screening finds them before they become cancer.
Go for screening even if you feel fine. Ask a nurse when you are due.
