    Dr. Sukanya Mehra Champions Cervical Cancer Awareness and Prevention on International Women’s Day

    In a significant move towards improving public health, the Central Government has joined forces with State Governments to address health issues, including cancer prevention and control. This collaboration aligns with the National Program for Prevention and Control of Cancer, Diabetes, Cardiovascular Diseases, and Stroke (NPCDCS), aimed at implementing a comprehensive framework under the National Health Mission (NHM) for district-level activities.

    NPCDCS focuses on essential objectives such as cancer awareness, screening, early diagnosis, and timely referral for appropriate treatment. Attention is primarily directed towards three main cancers: breast, cervical, and oral. Given the alarming statistics indicating a rise in cervical cancer cases, it is imperative that awareness about cervical cancer and its prevention becomes a priority.

    Cancer

    Cervical cancer primarily stems from persistent infection by the human papillomavirus (HPV), with other contributing risk factors including a weakened immune system, smoking, and family history. Symptoms can vary, but often include abnormal bleeding between periods, bleeding after sexual intercourse, foul-smelling white discharge, and low back or abdominal pain. In some instances, patients may experience no symptoms at all, making awareness and regular screening even more critical.

    The urgency to address cervical cancer cannot be overstated. Nearly all cases of cervical cancer are preventable through effective HPV vaccination, routine cervical cancer screenings, and appropriate follow-up treatment when necessary. However, a significant barrier remains—the lack of awareness regarding the HPV vaccine and its benefits, particularly among specific demographics. This gap in knowledge hinders vaccination efforts and ultimately compromises cervical cancer prevention.

    Therefore, there is a crucial need to raise awareness at a large scale about the importance of HPV vaccination and cervical cancer prevention strategies. By collaborating across government levels and educating the public, we can work towards significantly reducing the incidence of cervical cancer and fostering a healthier future for women everywhere.
