The Importance of the Annual Gynecological Check-up


The annual check-up is perhaps the most dreaded but also one of the most important medical examinations.

Why is it so important?
----------------------------

The importance is due to the ability of pap smears to detect precancerous conditions before they develop into cervical cancer.

The aim of a pap smear is discover atypical cells ( cells that looks different and that have the potential to develop into cancer). The disease process can than be stopped very early by destroying these abnormal cells before they cause cancer.

Cervical cancer used to be responsible for a large percentage of cancer related deaths in worldwide. In areas of the world where pap smears are seldom done , it remains a very important cause of cancer related deaths among women.
