Helping Women Understand Gynecologic Cancers and Screening
When it comes to understanding gynecologic cancers and screening, some information can be confusing. A new blog post provides details about which screening tests are recommended, the age group for the screening tests, and how often women should be screened. The post shares that most women are familiar with the Pap test, but not the HPV test. In addition, many women are not aware that the Pap test only screens for cervical cancer and that other gynecologic cancers do not have a screening test. Providers are encouraged to discuss screening test options with women and explain when screening is appropriate. Knowing why and when to get screened is important in understanding your gynecologic health.
