WAIT! 9 YEARS OLD CAN BE PROTECTED FROM CERVICAL CANCER—BUT NOT WITH SCREENING! 👀
Here’s the difference many people don’t know 👀👀🤷‍♀️

Cervical cancer is mainly c@used by persistent infection with high-r!sk types of HPV

Girls and boys can receive the HPV vaccine from around 9–14 years, ideally before exposure to HPV and dependingon the country's immunization schedule. It helps prevent the HPV infections that c@use most cervical cancers.

The screening is different from vaccination. It is for detecting HPV-related cervical changes early, and the recommended starting age depends on the country and screening guideline.

Other factors that can increase risk include smoking, weakened immunity, persistent HPV infection, and certain sexual-health factors.

The goal is prevention,not waiting until cancer develops
