dc.description.abstractCervical cancer screening plays a pivotal role in early detection and prevention, making it a cornerstone of public health efforts. Despite low awareness and knowledge of cervical cancer and screening, recent data on these variables are limited, especially in the targeted region of Ibadan, Oyo State. The study aims to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice of Cervical Cancer Screening among women in Ibadan, Oyo State. The study surveyed 537 women using an structured questionnaire. It was assessed that 86% of the respondents had good knowledge about cervical cancer, 71% of the respondents had good knowledge about cervical cancer prevention, and about 90.7% of the respondents had poor knowledge about HPV Vaccine. It was assessed that 88% of the respondents had good attitude towards HPV Vaccine. About 86% of the participants expressed their intention to vaccinate their daughters against HPV if given the opportunity and also 68.3%, were willing to pay out of pocket for the HPV vaccine for their child if their health insurance does not cover it, indicating a commitment to vaccination. The study reveals that 58.3% of respondents believe the HPV vaccine is safe for daughters, with a majority trusting healthcare professionals' advice. The study found that 63.5% of respondents have heard about the HPV vaccine from a healthcare provider, with only 13.9% of daughters receiving it. Findings from the study shows that educational level, employment status, monthly income, place of residence, number of daughters, and the age range of the daughters are important factors that influence knowledge of cervical cancer. The study highlights the importance of healthcare professionals in educating women about cervical cancer and the HPV vaccine, as well as the need for accessible and affordable vaccination programs. Concerns about vaccine safety, affordability, and the influence of social networks should be addressed to increase vaccination rates.
