A woman’s health issue that is important to fight for today is cervical cancer. Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women. This cancer targets females from the age of 15 to the age of 45. There are over 500k of these cases per the WHO (World Health Organization) per year with half of this amount ending in deaths. About 80% of cervical cancer cases occur in developing countries. Because of poverty experienced around the world the required testing, Papanicolaou, and HPV testing are either limited or nonexistent and proper treatment is hardly ever readily available for women. Presently other efficient alternatives are being looked into to help test and treat cervical cancer. What kinds of things can or should be done to help alleviate this problem?
