Abstract

Cervical cancer can be prevented through early detection, including Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid (VIA). Improving women's knowledge about VIA is important to support awareness of cervical cancer screening. To improve women's knowledge regarding VIA examination as an effort to promote early detection of cervical cancer. The community service activity was conducted on June 16, 2026, at PMB Melati, Yogyakarta, involving 30 women of reproductive age. Health education was delivered through lectures and discussions using leaflets. Participants' knowledge was assessed using a questionnaire before and after the education. Data were analyzed descriptively using frequencies and percentages. Before the education, 6 participants (20%) had good knowledge, 11 (37%) had moderate knowledge, and 13 (43%) had poor knowledge. After the education, good knowledge increased to 24 participants (80%), while moderate and poor knowledge decreased to 5 (17%) and 1 (3%), respectively. Education through lectures, discussions, and leaflets was accompanied by an increase in women's knowledge regarding VIA and cervical cancer early detection. Continuous education combined with access to screening services is recommended to support VIA screening practices.
