Abstract
Colorectal cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women. Colorectal cancer is a preventable disease with accepted screening modalities that have been proven to save lives. As women are more likely than men to develop right-sided colon cancers, colonoscopy is the preferred screening test in women. Currently, women are less likely to undergo colorectal cancer screening than men. Frank discussions addressing the fear or embarrassment of endoscopic screening are important in helping women overcome these barriers. Enhanced education of both practitioners and patients targeted to improve colorectal cancer screening adherence will improve early diagnosis and patient survival.
