It is estimated over 900 Australian women will be diagnosed with cervical cancer this year. Cervical cancer is the growth of abnormal cells in the lining of the cervix and is the 14th most common cancer in Australia.
Doctors recommend women should start getting cervical screening tests from the age of 25.
