Objective : Although cervical cancer is common, because of the presence of pre-invasive lesions and due to the fact that the cervix is an easily accessible organ, it is an appropriate disease for early diagnosis,  prevention, treatment and even eradication. We aimed to evaluate the results of HPV-DNA screening program in women between the ages of 30-65 in a primary care setting and to make recommendations for preventable risk factors. Method: In this cross-sectional descriptive study we evaluated the records of 716 women 30-65 years old who scanned for HPV between 2014-2016 in a primary health care center. In the evaluation of data obtained, descriptive statistical methods and chi square test were used. Results: The average age of women included in the study was 44,11 ± 9,25,  97.1% were married; the age of first sexual intercourse was minimum 13 maximum 34 (mean 19,76 ± 3,67).  Of women 20,81% smoked in various amounts, and 26,68% of them used hormonal contraceptives for varying periods of time.  HPV-DNA (+) was found in 19 (2.65%) of the women. Of these, 7 (1%) were HPV-16. Conclusion: In our study, however the positive rate of HPV-DNA is lower than the studies done in Turkey and abroad, the high-risk HPV genotype-16 ratio was higher. We concluded that HPV vaccination, condom use and regular gynecological examination rates  are inadequate in women which we included in our study and this may be due to economic reasons as well as socio-cultural factors.
