Gynecologist, Dr. Jennifer Hayes says 11 percent of women admit they don't get regular Pap smears. Dr. Hayes reminds this helps screen for cervical changes and cervical cancer.

Dr. Hays says researchers are looking for newer and better ways to detect HPV and detect the women that need ongoing follow-up treatment.


Dr. Hayes says one of the most exciting research on the forefront, focuses on a new gene being tested. It will be able to identify women with HPV and those who might progress on to cervical cancer.

Dr. Hayes says vaccination is key in preventing HPV. The American Cancer Society reports the following are risk factors for cervical cancer:


HPV
Lack of regular Pap tests
Weak immune system
Sexual history
Smoker
Birth control pills
Multiple pregnancies
