Because of the resurgence of cervical cancer in young women, what important information should a nurse share with young women at a local health fair?
What will be an ideal response
There is a risk of cervical cancer with an increase in the number of sexual partners and with early incidence of first intercourse. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection also appears to increase the risk of cervical cancer. A thorough yearly gynecological examination, including a Pap test, should be encouraged. The women should be taught to report to their physician any abnormal bleeding or drainage. They should be made aware that vaccines against HPV are now being offered.
