Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi recently opened up about her experience with cervical cancer and a hysterectomy, sharing an honest look at a difficult and emotional time.
Her story is also an important reminder: don’t put off your cervical cancer screening.
Cervical cancer is often preventable, and regular screening can help detect abnormal changes before they become cancer. HPV vaccination also plays an important role in preventing HPV-related cancers.
An abnormal Pap does NOT automatically mean cancer, but it does mean you should follow up with your healthcare provider and complete any recommended testing.
Whether you’re due for a Pap, have received an abnormal result, or simply aren’t sure when your next screening is due, make your health a priority.
Your future self will thank you. 💜
