Cervical cancer screening
Cervical Cancer Screening by Dr. Shifa Anwar Panwala
Cervical cancer screening is a vital preventive service that helps detect early changes in the cervix before they develop into cancer. With regular screening, cervical cancer is largely preventable and highly treatable when identified early. Dr. Shifa Anwar Panwala offers safe, gentle, and confidential screening in a comfortable clinical setting.
The most common screening test is the Pap smear, which checks for abnormal cervical cells. In some cases, an HPV test may also be recommended to detect high-risk strains of the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) that are associated with cervical cancer. The procedure is quick, usually painless, and completed within a few minutes.
Screening is generally advised for women starting from the age recommended by medical guidelines or earlier based on individual risk factors. Dr. Shifa provides personalized advice on when to start and how frequently to repeat the test, depending on your age, medical history, and previous reports.
