Over the past three decades, the number of cases has increased fivefold, and mortality has doubled. Particularly alarming is the fact that this disease is most commonly found in women under the age of 45.
But there is good news: mortality from cervical cancer can be significantly reduced. The key to success is regular preventive check-ups (at least once a year) and timely treatment.
