Cancer of the cervix (entrance to the womb) or uterus. Risk factors include infection with viruses (HPV, HIV), smoking, and age. Regular Pap smear testing is recommended for women of childbearing age for early detection.

  • History of abnormal cervical cancer screening

  • Bleeding in between menstrual cycles / periods or after menopause

  • Periods last more than 8 days

  • Pain in the pelvis- the lowest part of the abdomen, between the belly button and groin

  • Abdominal pain

  • Abnormal vaginal discharge e.g. in color, smell, or quantity

  • Stomach pain or tummy ache in a specific place

  • Increase in vaginal discharge

Doctor's Diagnostic Questionson Cervical Cancer

Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:

  • Have you ever had any abnormality on cervical cancer screening?

  • Have you experienced vaginal bleeding or discharge outside of your periods or after menopause?

  • Does your period last longer than 8 days?

  • Do you have pelvic pain?

  • Do you have a stomach ache?

Treatmentof Cervical Cancer

A gynecologist confirms the diagnosis with a "cervical biopsy" and may want to assess whether the cancer has spread with CT scans or MRIs. Once all that information is gathered they then recommend a treatment plan. Options depend on factors like the extent of disease and can include surgery, internal or external radiation, or chemotherapy.
