Early detection of precancerous lesions can prevent precancerous lesions from progressing to cervical cancer if prompt treatment is taken. Early detection of cervical cancer is important for all married women to prevent the occurrence of cervical cancer which can be done through an IVA test (Visual Acetic Acid Inspection test) or Pap smear. One of causes of the low participation of women was the perception factor of benefits about early detection of cervical cancer that women have. The aim of this study was to determine the association of benefits perceived to women's participation in early detection of cervical cancer.
