Issue Date: | 2024-12-03 | Publisher: | National Library of Medicine | Part of: | Healthcare (Switzerland) | Volume: | 12 | Issue: | 23 | Abstract: | Women's health represents an integral component of public health. With breast cancer being the first worldwide and cervical cancer the fourth most common cancer among women, and while habits of intimate hygiene remain mediocre, it is crucial to address these issues. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a community-based intervention on the knowledge and preventive measures (K&P) of women toward breast cancer, cervical cancer, and intimate hygiene. |
