The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) is actively promoting preventive care during January, which is recognized as Cervical Health Awareness Month. The initiative underscores the critical importance of regular screenings and Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination in the early detection and prevention of cervical cancer. HHSC emphasizes that cervical cancer is largely preventable, and early detection significantly increases treatment success rates. As part of its efforts, HHSC encourages women to utilize the Breast and Cervical Cancer Services (BCCS) program, which provides free and low-cost health services for uninsured and underinsured women in Texas. These services include essential cervical and breast cancer screenings, biopsies, clinical breast examinations, and mammograms, funded in part by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC recommends routine cervical cancer screenings for women aged 21–65. Recent guidelines also endorse expanded screening options, such as HPV testing every five years for women aged 30 to 65, and the inclusion of FDA-approved self-collected vaginal samples for HPV testing in this age group, aiming to reduce barriers to care. Health experts, both in the U.S. and globally, consistently highlight that nearly all cervical cancer cases are caused by high-risk HPV infections, making vaccination a powerful preventive tool. For an Indian audience, this information is highly relevant as cervical cancer continues to be a major public health challenge in India, with a high mortality rate. Experts in India advocate for widespread HPV vaccination, regular screenings, and early treatment as crucial strategies. Despite national guidelines, screening coverage in India remains low, underscoring the universal need for increased awareness and access to preventive services. Therefore, while the original article is Texas-specific, its core message about cervical cancer prevention has significant global implications.
