    1. What is Cervical Cancer?

    The cervix is a part of the uterus, where the vagina connect to the uterus, is covered with a thin layer of tissue consisting of many cells. The disease is caused by an abnormal, uncontrolled growth of cells in the cervix. The cells grow rapidly and create tumors in the cervix.

    2. Get HPV  vaccination - reduce the risk of disease up to 90%

    There are many causes of cervical cancer including more than 90% of cases detected by the HPV virus. The best prevention measure is againsting the HPV virus. In Vietnam, the HPV vaccine recommended by the vaccine manufacturer is indicated for women between the ages of 9 and 26 years, regardless of whether or not they have had sex. Experts recommend that women should get vaccinated against cervical cancer as soon as possible. The effective vaccine lasts up to 30 years. In addition, experts recommend the following:

    • Nutrition regime, scientific and healthy movement;

    • Don't have sex too early and keep healthy sex;

    • Do not abuse birth control pills;

    • Keep the vagina clean;
