The frequency of screening depends on the type of cancer and individual risk factors. For example:
Breast cancer: Women aged 50 to 74 are typically advised to undergo mammograms every two years. Colorectal cancer: Screening can range from every 1 to 10 years depending on the method used. Cervical cancer: Women aged 21 to 65 should have a Pap smear every three years, or every five years if combined with HPV testing.
