 *Cervical Cancer By Favour Christopher*

Cervical cancer like the name implies is a cancer of the cervix. While cancer is an abnormal cell growth. Therefore, cervical cancer is an abnormal growth if cells in the cervix. The cervix is the lower part of the uterus that opens into the vagina.
Cervical cancer is caused by s virus called " *Human Papilloma Virus" HPV.*
Not all HPV actually causes cancer. HOV can only be transmitted by sexual contact.
Symptoms of Cervical Cancer includes:
* Bleeding from Vagina after sex, between menstrual flows and after menopause
* Pain in lower pelvis or lower belly
* Pains during sex
* Abnormal Vagina discharge

Before jumping to conclusions, my dear visit a Doctor fr a pelvic examination, pap test and biopsy.
Cervical cancer can be treated: which means if you had been diagnosed of cervical cancer you can actually get well and back to normal a condition.
Treatment vary depending on the stage of the cervical cancer
* Hysterectomy
* Chemotherapy
* Radiation therapy
My dear cancer is not the end of it all, with proper medication and treatment of course you can get better.
Finally, before I drop my pen, there are some measures that can be taken to prevent cancer. They are:
* HPV Vaccine. Once you are 20 years and above
* Visit to your Doctor for pap test and pelvic examination
* Due to the fact that HPV can only be contracted through sexual intercourse, it is advised you abstaincfrom sex or stick to your partner (Husband).
Women with multiple sex partners at a higher risk of contacting HPV and becoming victims off cervical cancer.
