Nicole 'Snooki' Polizzi Diagnosed with Cervical Cancer, Reveals 'It's Stage 1 & It's Curable'

Nicole went on to stress the importance of women getting routine pap smears.

“I’m 38 years old and I’ve been struggling with abnormal pap smears for three or four years now, and now look at me,” she said. “Instead of putting it off because I didn’t want to go, because I was hurt and scared, I just went and did it. And it was there, cancer is in there. But it’s stage 1 and it’s curable.”

“So get your appointments done, b-tches! I’m telling you!” Nicole continued. “Once you go to stage 2, then you have to do chemo… nobody wants to do that! It’s scary. So get your appointments done.”

Now that she has received her diagnosis, Nicole said that she will next be transferred to an oncologist and undergo a PET scan to determine if the cancer has spread to anywhere else in her body.

“After that, I’m gonna probably get the hysterectomy,” Nicole shared, noting that her doctor said the alternative was chemotherapy and radiation. “Obviously, I think the smart choice here is the hysterectomy. I’ll still keep my ovaries, which is a good sign. But yeah, gotta get the cervix and uterus out. It all depends on the PET scan.”

“So 2026 is not panning out how I wanted it to,” she continued. “But also, it could be worse.”

Nicole then explained that cervical cancer is “very common” in women before encouraging others who are going through similar experiences to connect with her on social media.

“A lot of women go through it silently without anyone to talk to and they’re scared by themselves,” the mom of three said. “And that was me until I decided to upload the video about what was happening with me.”

“I like that we have a platform here to talk about it with each other,” Nicole continued. “I appreciate all of the love. Everything’s going to be fine. I’m going to tackle this and get it done.”

“I gotta keep attacking this and everything’s gonna be great,” she ended.

After undergoing a pap smear back in January, Nicole broke down in tears as she revealed that doctors found cancerous cells in her cervix.

If you didn’t see, Nicole recently had an emotional conversation with her birth mother, who explained why she put the reality star up for adoption.
