Why It Matters?
Cervical cancer is a disease in which cells in the cervix (the lower, narrow end of the uterus) grow out of control. Cervical cancer was one of the most common causes of cancer death for American women; effective screening and early detection of cervical pre-cancers have led to a significant reduction in this death rate.1
