January: Cervical Health Awareness MonthCervical Health Awareness Month is a chance to raise

awareness about how women can protect themselves from HPV

(human papillomavirus) and cervical cancer. HPV is a very common

infection that spreads through sexual activity, and it causes almost all

cases of cervical cancer.

About 79 million Americans currently have HPV. Many people

with HPV don’t know they are infected. And each year, more than

11,000 women in the United States get cervical cancer.

The good news?The HPV vaccine (shots) can prevent HPV.Cervical cancer can often be

prevented with regular screening tests and follow-up care.Cervical

cancer screenings can help detect abnormal (changed) cells early,

before they turn into cancer. Most deaths from cervical cancer could be

prevented by regular screenings and follow-up care.

How can Cervical Health Awareness Month make a difference?We can use this opportunity to spread the word about important steps

women can take to stay healthy.

Here are just a few ideas:Encourage women to get their well-woman visit this year.

Let women know that most insurance plans must cover well-woman

visits and cervical cancer screening. This means that, depending on

their insurance, women can get these services at no cost to them.

Talk to parents about how important it is for their pre-teens to get the

HPV vaccine. Both boys and girls need the vaccine.
