According to the American Cancer Society, more than 13,000 women will be diagnosed with cervical cancer this year, most often in women over the age of 30.
Cervical cancer is a type of cancer that affects the cells of the cervix, which is the lower part of the uterus connecting to the vagina. It is the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide, with more than half a million new cases and over 300,000 deaths reported each year. Cervical cancer is primarily caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV), a common sexually transmitted infection.
HPV is a group of viruses that can be transmitted through sexual contact. There are over 200 different types of HPV, but only a few of them are high-risk and can lead to the development of cervical cancer.
There are two main types of cervical cancer.
● Most cervical cancers are squamous cell carcinomas. This type of cancer affects the squamous cells that line the outer part of the cervix and protect the vagina.
● Adenocarcinoma cervical cancer develops in the glandular cells that line the cervical canal.
Cervical cancer, if diagnosed early, is highly treatable by surgery, chemotherapy or radiation. In this blog series, we will cover the causes and risk factors associated with this disease and the importance of prevention and early detection.
