HPV vaccines offer a rare opportunity to effectively eliminate cervical cancer.

By taking this opportunity, it’s possible to save the lives of hundreds of thousands of women each year.

[Ministry of Health @MoHFW_INDIA]

Cervical cancer is preventable.

HPV vaccination for young girls and regular screening for women ensure early protection and early detection, reducing risk and strengthening women’s health.

Protect early, screen regularly, and stay one step ahead.

HPV spreads silently but cervical cancer develops seriously. But one step can change the story —HPV vaccination.

By protecting against high-risk types 16 & 18, the vaccine helps prevent most cervical cancer cases.

Let’s choose prevention. Let’s choose protection.
