- Early Detection: Identifies high-risk HPV infections before they cause significant cellular changes. - Prevention: Allows for early intervention, reducing the risk of developing cervical cancer. - Effective Screening: More effective than the Pap smear alone in identifying women at risk of cervical cancer. - Longer Screening Intervals: With co-testing, women can safely extend the interval between screenings, reducing the discomfort and inconvenience of frequent tests.
