Particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa, where Uganda has one of the highest incidence rates worldwide, cervical
cancer is a serious public health problem. Utilisation is still low despite national programmes that support free
HPV vaccinations and screenings. This research looks at what influences women who visit Jinja Regional Referral
Hospital in Eastern Uganda to be screened for cervical cancer. The study emphasises the significant global burden
of cervical cancer, with a focus on low-resource nations. The startling data and low screening acceptance in
Uganda are shown. Recognised are the screening programmes established by the Ugandan Ministry of Health and
the important problem of underutilization. The purpose of this study is to determine the causes of the low
screening rates among female patients at Jinja Regional Referral Hospital. Interventions may be created to
increase uptake and eventually reduce cervical cancer fatalities in Uganda by taking these aspects into
consideration
