Abstract

Cervical cancer is still a major worldwide health concern, particularly in areas with high rates of infection and little resources. The important connection between human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and cervical cancer is examined in this publication, which also highlights the need for early screening and detection and highlights the rising incidence among teenagers and young adults. Women continue to confront numerous obstacles to cervical cancer screening and treatment, even in spite of the World Health Organization's strategy to eradicate the disease through prompt detection and treatment. Personal concerns, cultural and religious beliefs, and a lackluster healthcare system are a few of these obstacles. It is critical to identify and eliminate obstacles to screening uptake in developing countries in order to lower the incidence of cervical cancer. Therefore, this paper outlined the obstacles to cervical cancer screening in developing countries, provided mitigation strategies, and emphasized the need for better policy and campaign measures in order to eradicate cervical cancer. This study used relevant published research from reliable databases.
