What are the Challenges in Cervical Cancer Epidemiology?
Despite advances, several challenges remain in cervical cancer epidemiology:
1. Access to Healthcare: Limited access to screening and vaccination in low-resource settings leads to higher incidence and mortality rates. 2. Data Collection: Inconsistent data collection methods can hinder accurate epidemiological assessments. 3. Stigma and Awareness: Cultural stigma and lack of awareness about cervical cancer and HPV can prevent women from seeking preventive care.
