New Cervical Cancer Screening Guidelines: Self-Collection
The American Cancer Society introduces a new cervical cancer screening guideline, allowing women to collect their own vaginal samples for HPV testing, potentially reducing traditional Pap smears. This self-collection method aims to improve convenience, accessibility, and screening rates, especially for those with busy schedules or past negative experiences. Doctors emphasize the importance of follow-up care for abnormal results and recommend annual pelvic exams for overall wellness.
