Answer 3

An estimated 13,000 American women fall victim to cervical cancer each year and 4,100 will die, according to the American Cancer Society. However, tests known as Pap smears (also called Pap tests) let many more stop the disease in its tracks before it becomes serious. Deaths from the cancer dropped by 74 percent from 1955 to 1992, after the tests became popular.

Scientists think at least 90 percent of cervical cancer cases are caused by HPV, which may be the most common sexually transmitted disease. HPV causes inflammation, which makes the cervix more hospitable to cancerous cells by preventing them from dying naturally, Hawes explains.

"This process can take years to develop—20 to 30 years after you have your initial HPV infection," he says.
