Cervical cancer is nearly 100 percent preventable, yet each year, about 15,000 women in the United States learn that they have cancer of the cervix. The occurrence of deaths from cervical cancer has declined significantly. The good news is that cervical cancer is preventable and curable if it is detected early. Cervical cancer rates are higher among older women; however, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (or CIN), the precursor lesion to cervical cancer, most often occurs among younger women. Therefore, screening younger women is an important strategy that can actually prevent cervical cancer from developing almost 100 percent of the time. Furthermore, when cervical cancer is detected at its earliest stage, the 5-year survival rate is more than 90 percent.
