Snooki, 38, Opens Up About Cancer Battle

Nicole 'Snooki' Polizzi revealed on Friday that she has been diagnosed with cervical .

The 38-year-old Jersey Shore star, 38, posted a video sharing a health update.

She said that she had a cone biopsy this year

'It came back stage 1 cervical cancer called adenocarcinoma,' she said. 'Obviously not the news I've been hoping for, but also not the worst news just because they caught it so early. Thank freaking God!'

And she urged fans to get 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----es! I'm telling you!' she 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.'

She is now seeing an oncologist.

'After that, I'm gonna probably get the hysterectomy,' she shared.

'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 said. 'But also, it could be worse.'

In January Polizzi said she had an abnormal pap smear results and precancerous cells for the past four years.

'I’ve had issues with getting abnormal results and precancerous cells on your cervix and everything. It’s very stressful you guys,' Polizzi told viewers while heaving a huge sigh.

She also said that she recently underwent a colposcopy and biopsy at her doctor’s urging.

'That hurt. It wasn’t a great experience,' said the MTV star, who recently discovered .

She then shared the results of the colposcopy: 'Doctor calls me and he’s like, "Not looking great." He found cancerous cells on the top of my cervix.'

Polizzi added she was going to have a cone biopsy, which is often needed to further test or treat abnormal pap smears, and she’ll have it done while under anesthesia.

'I’m terrified,' she admitted. 'It’s scary, but we have to get it done because cervical cancer is nothing to joke about.'
