The relational association between multiple sexual partners and HIV testing on cervical cancer screening among women of reproductive age in Ghana: A national population-based study

The study highlights the influence of multiple sexual partners and HIV testing on cervical cancer screening uptake among women of reproductive age in Ghana. Though the study found no significant association between multiple sexual partners and cervical screening uptake, HIV testing was a predictor of cervical cancer screening among women in Ghana. We recommend continued creation of awareness of cervical cancer screening among women of reproductive age.

Abstract

The study highlights the influence of multiple sexual partners and HIV testing on cervical cancer screening uptake among women of reproductive age in Ghana. Though the study found no significant association between multiple sexual partners and cervical screening uptake, HIV testing was a predictor of cervical cancer screening among women in Ghana. We recommend continued creation of awareness of cervical cancer screening among women of reproductive age.
