Popis: Cervical cancer is one of the widespread diseases that have a negative impact on the reproductive health. However, medical-social risk factors which provoke this pathology aren't studied sufficiently yet. We have identified the most significant medical-social risk factors of cervical cancer's development and progression based on data analysis of a sociological study. Thus, it was found that cervical cancer can't be associated with predominantly late reproductive age of women in conditions of the Republic of Belarus: most of the patients with this pathology (more than 53%) were under the age of 35 years old. The group of patients suffered from cervical cancer was quite homogeneous in their social status, which was average and relatively stable in a large majority of them (more than 90%), despite employment in various sectors of the national economy. Social functioning of these patients wasn't significantly different from the main population of women in reproductive age. Thus, early sexual activity and random early sexual relations weren't characteristic for the majority of them: 86.1±4.46% (the control group – 87.3±5.51%, the comparison group – 78.2±3.96%) and 83.5±4.72% (the control group – 89.1±4.28%, the comparison group – 75.2±2.36%). Moreover, the married patients of the main group had the most ordered sexual behavior (p
