NCI: Cervical Cancer: What Vietnamese Women Should Know
English: www.nci.nih.gov/cancerinfo/cervical-screening-vietnamese
Vietnamese: www.nci.nih.gov/cancertopics/cervical-screening-vietnamese.pdf (available as an Adobe Acrobat PDF file)*
Cervical cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among Vietnamese women in the United States. In fact, Vietnamese women have the highest rate of cervical cancer — five times higher than that of non-Hispanic white women. This disparity is largely the result of low rates of cervical cancer screening among Vietnamese women. Getting screened with a Pap test on a regular basis can help women prevent cervical cancer. It can also help detect cancer early, increasing the chances of survival. To address the needs of Vietnamese women, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) has developed this publication, available in both Vietnamese and English, that stresses the importance of Pap tests in preventing cervical cancer. The booklet is a resource for Vietnamese women, containing information on what causes cervical cancer and how it can be prevented. To order copies of this free booklet, call 800-4-CANCER (toll free) or visit https://cissecure.nci.nih.gov/ncipubs/details.asp?pid=1314.
