Vaccination Against Cervical Cancer Prevention

Cervical cancer prevention is highly effective with the HPV vaccine. The vaccine protects against high-risk HPV strains responsible for most cervical cancers. Dr. Munisha Sharma advocates for vaccination in young girls and boys before HPV exposure, ideally between ages 9-14. Even women who missed early vaccination can benefit up to age 45.

Routine Pap smears and HPV testing further reduce cervical cancer risks. Dr. Munisha Sharma emphasizes raising awareness about the HPV vaccine's safety and effectiveness in preventing cervical and other HPV-related cancers. Widespread vaccination is a key step in eliminating cervical cancer globally.
