Women’s Health CME: Learn, Network, and Make an Impact

Women’s health is a complex area of study, including the study of biological characteristics unique to women, such as the reproductive organs and the differences in body structure. Yet, it also includes factors that affect both genders, like common colds, diseases, and cancer. With the help of Women’s Health CME, studying health patterns and how diseases affect certain individuals can help reduce cancer risk (New Dimensions in Women’s Health).

January is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month – a cancer that more than 14,000 women in the U.S. are diagnosed with each year. In 2025, many cancer-focused organizations are working to raise awareness and showcase how this often preventable type of cancer can be eliminated through vaccination and proper screening. 

Cervical cancer, unlike most cancer types, is mainly caused by persistent infection with a virus – the human papillomavirus (HPV) – and research has shown that even a single vaccine dose against HPV offers robust protection even 15 years after vaccine administration. Further, an HPV detection test offers a negative predictive value of close to 100%. 

The World Health Organization (WHO) has a goal of eliminating cervical cancer as a public health problem by 2100. To achieve this, all countries must reach and maintain an incidence rate of fewer than four new cases of cervical cancer per 100,000 women per year, which rests on three pillars of prevention, screening, and treatment:

• Vaccination: 90% of girls fully vaccinated with the HPV vaccine by the age of 15 years;
• Screening: 70% of women screened using a high-performance test by the age of 35 years, and again by the age of 45 years;
• Treatment: 90% of women with precancer treated and 90% of women with invasive cancer managed.

How Can Women’s Health CME Help Reduce Cancer Risk?

Access to health care not only includes whether women can physically get to a doctor or healthcare provider but also is essential in decision-making (New Dimensions in Women’s Health). Here are a few reasons how women’s health cme help reduce cancer risk:

• Early Detection Training: Equip providers with the latest screening techniques and guidelines for early detection of cancers like breast, cervical, and ovarian.
• Prevention Education: Enhance understanding of risk factors, such as lifestyle, genetics, and environmental influences, to guide patients in making preventive health choices.
• Cutting-Edge Research: Stay informed on advancements in cancer prevention strategies, including vaccines like HPV to reduce cervical cancer risk.
• Empowered Patient Communication: Improve skills in counseling patients about screening, self-exams, and preventive care tailored to individual needs.
• Multidisciplinary Collaboration: Foster collaboration with specialists, ensuring comprehensive care plans that prioritize prevention and early intervention.
