Abstract: Cervical cancer is a major cause of death from cancer among women globally. It has a pattern of development similar to that of a sexually transmitted disease and is associated with the greater risk from the number of partners and the earlier start of sexual activity. Different incidence patterns exist worldwide due to the establishment of screening programmes in some countries and not in others. Although cervical cancer rates and death rates have generally decreased over time, recent changes in lifestyle and sexual behaviour appear to be leading to an increase in the overall risk of developing cervical cancer. Smoking and the human papilloma virus (HPV) 16/18 are now important contributors to the idea of several factors, progressive cervix uteri carcinogenesis. Thus, screening programs, HPV vaccination, and societal preventative and control measures are advised. Using a cell morphological from observation to molecular analysis, cervical cancer screening techniques have changed over time. Both liquid-based cytology and high-risk HPV genotyping are popular strategies that are commonly recommended and used worldwide. Quick, inexpensive, accurate, and practical techniques will eventually become extra prevalent. By combining big data technology and picture identification, artificial intelligence also shows pledge for the detection of carcinoma of the cervical region. In the meantime, China has achieved considerable progress in the prevention and management of cervical cancer, which could act as a template for other resource-constrained poor countries. In conclusion, even though cervical cancer poses a threat to women's health, it may be the first cancer that humans are able to eradicate with a thorough Preventive and regulating plan
