The cervix is a narrow opening of the female reproductive system separating the vaginal canal from the uterus. The main purpose of the cervix is to dilate during labor which allows for delivery of the baby.

Cervical cancer can be very serious. It is cancer that usually begins with malignant cells within the cervix. Women may unknowingly increase their risk for cervical cancer by smoking, using oral contraceptives, and having many sexual partners. Another great risk factor is infection with HPV.

Cervical cancer may not cause any initial signs and symptoms. It can take several years for cells to become cancerous in the cervix. As the disease progresses symptoms will become more evident. Symptoms could include:

• Irregular or heavy vaginal bleeding between periods
• Watery or bloody vaginal discharge
• Pain during intercourse
• Pelvic pain
• Fatigue
• Weight loss

Common treatment protocol for cervical cancer includes surgery. Surgical treatment could result in a total or radical hysterectomy. A hysterectomy may include removal of uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. Treatment options could include the use of toxic medicines. Your doctor may suggest:

• Surgery
• Chemotherapy
• Radiation therapy

Radiation therapy may also be considered an option for some cervical cancer patients. Radiation therapy is used in an attempt to destroy cancerous cells and cause a reduction in tumor size. It is most often used for cervical cancer that has metastasized. Radiation therapy and chemotherapy are often performed simultaneously.
