Cervical
cancer is the 2 nd leading cause of cancer deaths in women aged 15 to 44 years
in India. The Human Papilloma virus (HPV) is the cause of almost all cases of
cervical cancer.
Despite cervical cancer being largely preventable with timely vaccination
against HPV and regular screening, many remain unaware of these life-saving
measures. The high occurrence of cervical cancer and related deaths in India is
attributed to low literacy, poor screening, low awareness, social inequality,
stigma, and poverty.
FPA India

cancer in association with TMM 2025, with renewed urgency and commitment,
