May is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month. As an obstetrician-gynecologist, I don't just recommend the HPV vaccine—I live it. This month, my own son turned 14, and I made sure he received his HPV vaccine. By vaccinating him, I am not only protecting him from HPV-related cancers (like throat and pe**le cancer) but also protecting his future partner from cervical cancer. This is what true prevention looks like: a mother caring for her child, and that child growing up to care for others.
Mothers, protect your daughters and your sons. Women, get your regular Pap smear. This May, let us commit to a cervical cancer–free Philippines—one vaccine, one family, one life at a time.
Happy birthday, anak. ❤️
