Happy Friday 🇧🇼 👋🏽
Today we look at an important topic for the month concerning ladies 🙋🏽♀️👸🏽💅 We’re talking about Cervical Cancer Screening - not just a check up but a “heads-up”
* Get Screened Regularly: Stay up-to-date with Pap tests and HPV tests as recommended by your doctor (often starting at age 21) to catch cell changes early
* Practice Safe S*x: Use condoms to help lower HPV exposure and consider limiting your number of s*xual partners to reduce risk
* Don't Smoke: Smoking weakens the immune system, making it harder to fight HPV infections, so quit if you smoke
* Know the Symptoms: Be aware of unusual vaginal bleeding, pain during s*x, or abnormal discharge and talk to your doctor if you experience them
* Educate Others: Spread awareness in your community, workplace and family about these prevention steps
* Support a Healthy Lifestyle: A balanced diet and exercise can support your immune system, helping it fight off HPV
Being informed and sharing facts with those around you helps get the message of healthier living options accessible to everyone even those beyond your contact 👊🏾🤝🏾
