Breast cancer and cervical cancer are two of the most prevalent cancers among Indonesians. Both types of cancer have high mortality rates, generally influenced by late detection of the disease.

Early detection of cervical cancer can be done through Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid (VIA) or pap smear. Early detection of breast cancer can be done through Clinical Breast Examination (SADANIS).

Based on a report from the Ministry of Health, from 2019 to 2021, 2,827,177 women aged 30-50 years underwent these two types of early cancer detection. This number only reaches 6.83% of the national target.

Bangka Belitung Islands Province had the highest national achievement in early detection of cervical and breast cancer, at 30.24%. This was followed by South Sumatra at 25.16% and West Nusa Tenggara at 23.22%.

Meanwhile, the provinces with the lowest early detection coverage were Papua at only 0.03%, followed by West Papua at 0.56%, and Aceh at 0.57%.

Provinces with low early detection coverage are feared to experience an increase in morbidity and mortality rates due to cervical and breast cancer. Therefore, efforts are needed to increase early detection coverage in areas with low coverage.
