How Important are Regular Screenings and Check-ups?
Regular screenings and gynecological check-ups are crucial for early detection and prevention of cancer. Important screenings include:
Pap Smear: Recommended every three years for women aged 21-65 to detect cervical cancer. HPV Testing: Often done in conjunction with a Pap smear for women over 30. Transvaginal Ultrasound and CA-125 Blood Test: Used in some cases to detect ovarian cancer.
