Episode Five: Cervical Cancer

Since the Pap test was introduced in 1947, the number of women with cervical cancer in the United States has gone down drastically – by 75%. This easy, inexpensive, accurate, and painless test detects early changes in the cells of the cervix. These changes, a pre-cancerous condition known as dysplasia, are completely treatable if found early. If left untreated, dysplasia can develop into cervical cancer. That is why routine screening with a Pap test is so important.
