“…html. On the other hand, our results confirm that in Mexico screening is mostly opportunistically offered (HernandezAvila et al, 1998;Aguilar-Pérez et al, 2003). Therefore, encouraging young women to start screening before they have completed childbearing is important because at older age (when women are at a higher risk), they are unlikely to access family planning aid or obstetric care.…”

“…Estos resultados son consistentes con los reportados en otros estudios para Colombia 5,19 y otros países 3,20 . En particular, el antecedente de infecciones de transmisión sexual es un factor asociado a la citología reciente, resultado consistente y similar a lo encontrado en Ciudad de Méxi-co 3 . De igual forma, se encontró que existe una mayor probabilidad de tener una citología reciente conforme aumenta el nivel socioeconómico de la mujer, resultado confirmado para Ciudad de México 3 , Bogotá en Colombia 5 y Estados Unidos 20 .…”
