About us About cancer Press office Get involved ... Contact our information nurses Cervical cancer If you or a friend or relative have been diagnosed with cancer, you will find much more detailed information on our patient information site, CancerHelp UK Summary Although there is a higher chance to develop cervical cancer later in life, it is the second most common cancer in women under the age of 35. Each year, there are over 3,200 new cases in the UK. The cancer develops from cells lining the cervix, which is the canal that connects the uterus to the vagina. During childbirth, the baby passes through this canal. Cervical cancer does not develop suddenly. There is usually a period when some of the cells lining the cervix develop abnormal changes that can give rise to cervical cancer later on. Doctors can pick up these changes through screening, and simple treatment can prevent cancer developing. The NHS cervical screening programme has been very effective in reducing the number of cases diagnosed in the UK. Risk factors Risk factors for cervical cancer include: Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection There are many types or strains of HPV. Some types can cause warts. Others are known as high-risk types, as they can cause abnormalities in the cells in the cervix, and cervical cancer. A high-risk HPV infection is present in almost all women with cervical cancer, but most women do not go on to develop cervical cancer.

This Act, which has an effective date of October 1, 2000, gives states the option to provide medical assistance through Medicaid to eligible women who were screened through the and found to have breast or cervical cancer, including pre-cancerous conditions. NBCCEDP, which is administered by CDC, provides free breast and cervical cancer screening and follow-up diagnostic services to women in need, such as those who are uninsured or have low incomes.

Education Health Best Hospitals Children's Health Men's Health Women's Health Health after 50 Heart Disease Wellness Opinion Technology Washington Whispers News Briefings ... Market@usnews A Daughter Vaccine It's possible the next generation of girls may be spared a deadly cancer BY SUSAN BRINK The headline in the New England Journal of Medicine reads more like the answer to a prayer than a medical analysis: "The Beginning of the End for Cervical Cancer?" The suggestion that even a single form of cancer might actually be eliminated seems at first like nothing more than a cruel exaggeration. The study is ongoing, but the early results reverberated through the medical world. "Everybody is amazed at these results, because of the 100 percent protection," says Thomas Wright, a gynecologic pathologist at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia University in New York. "The potential for this is just fabulous." Although most HPV infections simply go away on their own, in some women, the virus leads to cell abnormalities, a precancerous condition called dysplasia, and, in time, to cervical cancer. The research path to such a vaccine began about 20 years ago, when scientists established that several types of sexually transmitted HPV are responsible for cervical cancer. This medical advance meant that cervical cancer could be thought of as a sexually transmitted disease and that women could avoid the deadly disease by protecting against the virus.

88. Herpes, HPV May Spell Cervical Cancer NewYorkPresbyterian Hospital, Herpes and HPV Infection May Increase Riskof cervical cancer. New cervical cancer Detection Guidelines Issued. http://www.nyp.org/news/2002/healthnews/11-27-cancer.html

Herpes and HPV Infection May Increase Risk of Cervical Cancer New research suggests that the combination of herpes and HPV, another common sexually transmitted virus, may raise the risk that infected women will develop cervical cancer. The findings may explain why some women are more prone to cervical cancer. "We know that HPV (human papillomavirus) causes cancer, but a lot of people have HPV and never get cancer," explains Stephen E. Hawes, an assistant professor of epidemiology at the University of Washington at Seattle and author of a commentary on the new study. Researchers think at least 90 percent of cervical cancer cases are caused by HPV, which may be the most common sexually transmitted disease. HPV causes inflammation, which makes the cervix more hospitable to cancerous cells by preventing them from dying naturally, Hawes explains. "This process can take years to develop—20 to 30 years after you have your initial HPV infection," he says. An estimated 13,000 American women fall victim to cervical cancer each year and 4,100 will die, according to the American Cancer Society . However, tests known as Pap smears (also called Pap tests), conducted regularly from the time a woman becomes sexually active to well past menopause, allow doctors to diagnose cervical cancer earlier, before it becomes serious. Deaths from the cancer dropped by 74 percent from 1955 to 1992, after the tests became widely used.

Wrist Rx Jill Ayn Schneider, Director of Circle of Life Holistic Programs Delray Beach, Florida Facing Cancer on My Own * Latest Newspaper Article about Jill Schneider In February, 1975, I was diagnosed with malignant cervical cancer. I had no pain or other symptoms, and would not have had any idea I was sick if the cancer had not shown up on my annual Pap test, which had come back from the lab marked "Class Five: conclusive for malignancy." I received the news from a concerned receptionist at my gynecologist’s office, who said I should come in and have another test taken so they could double-check the results. I did, and spent the next few days wondering whether I would die, or ever be able to have children. And then the same results came back. I As I thought about what my doctor said, I became convinced that the line of treatment he outlined was all wrong for me. It seemed painful, complicated, and disharmonious with nature. I started feeling that I am not my body - that ultimately, my life was in God’s hands. There was a part of me that said, "Thank you, God, for giving me this experience. My body is a channel through which I experience this life." But there was another part of me that had a keen desire to live a long and healthy life. I was not going to let anything take away my potential for motherhood.

Cervical cancer is a disease where cancer cells are found in the cervix, the narrow section of the uterus (womb) that leads to the vagina (birth canal). Cervical cancer is seen more frequently among women who have had sex at an early age, multiple sex partners, who have contracted sexually transmitted disease , or who smoke . It tends to occur when women are in their 40's and 50's. Women should start getting regular Pap tests by the age of 18 or when sexual activity begins, whichever occurs first. Regular Pap tests allow abnormal cell changes in the cervix to be detected early and treated before cancer develops. What are the symptoms of cervical cancer?

Take a CBSNews.com Interactive look at Cancer: Learn about the most common cancers, who gets them and how they are treated. Discover how the disease attacks the human body and which cancers are the leading killers. Click Here. The following are Dr. Senay's answers to frequently asked questions: What's the best way to avoid cervical cancer? The best test to detect the earliest stages of cervical cancer is extremely effective. The pap test or the pap smear is still the gold standard. It involves taking a swab of cell samples from the cervix and testing them for precancerous changes that might signal the early development of cancer. If cervical cancer is caught early, it can be treated very successfully in most cases. The importance of screening is highlighted by the statistics. Cervical cancer kills more than 4,000 women in the U.S. each year. And 13,000 new cases are diagnosed every year. Of those newly-diagnosed women, 50 percent have never had a pap test, and another 10 percent haven't had a pap test within five years of their diagnosis.

Cervical Cancer Prevention Worldwide, cervical cancer is the third most common cancer in women, and almost 300,000 women in developing countries are diagnosed with this disease each year. However, many of these cases could have been avoided if women had access to screening and treatment programs. In most cases precancerous lesions go undetected simply because women do not have access to screening tests such as Pap smears. To address this problem, JHPIEGO began exploring the feasibility of several low-cost alternatives to Pap smears, including unmagnified (naked eye) visual inspection of the cervix using a dilute solution of acetic acid (VIA), that could be implemented in low-resource settings. With the mounting evidence establishing VIA as a low-cost alternative to Pap smears, JHPIEGO is working to link VIA testing with treatment to reduce morbidity and mortality due to cervical cancer.
