Almost 100% of people diagnosed with breast cancer at an early stage are alive 5 years later
A normal cell in the cervix becomes abnormal and cancerous. It usually takes 3–7 years for noticeable changes in cervical cells to become cancer.
Screening for cervical cancer in ALL women age 21 to 65 years with a Pap smear every 3 years. Or, for women age 30-65 years, the Pap smear can be combined with the HPV testing every 5 years.
So you can catch the abnormal cells and treat them before they turn into cancer!
Finding cancer early, when it’s small and hasn’t spread, often allows for more treatment options.
For an appointment with a Center for Family Health Women’s Health doctor to get screened for these cancers!
