Introduction:
Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers in women when detected early. A simple test known as a Pap smear can save lives by identifying abnormal cervical cells before they turn into cancer. At Armada Medical Centre in Dubai, we emphasize regular screenings as part of preventive women’s healthcare.
