Cervix Cancer Treatment in Rampurhat
Cervix Cancer Treatment guidance for patients from Rampurhat, Birbhum, and Murshidabad with clinically grounded treatment planning.
What is Cervical Cancer
Cervical cancer develops in the cervix, the lower part of the uterus connecting to the vagina. Most cervical cancers develop slowly as precancerous changes. If detected early through screening, they can be treated before becoming cancer. Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers because effective screening tests (Pap smear) and HPV vaccines are available.
Risk Factors and Causes
- Nearly all cases are caused by persistent HPV infection
- Other risk factors include smoking (weakens immune system), weakened immune system (HIV/AIDS), early sexual activity, multiple sexual partners, and long-term oral contraceptive use
- HPV is a common virus spread through sexual contact
Symptoms and When to Seek Evaluation
- Early cervical cancer often causes no symptoms. As disease progresses
- Symptoms include abnormal vaginal bleeding
- Bleeding after sexual intercourse
- Bleeding between periods
- Post-menopausal bleeding
- Unusual vaginal discharge
- Pelvic pain
- Pain during intercourse. Advanced disease may cause leg swelling
- Difficulty urinating
- Weight loss
- Fatigue. Any abnormal vaginal bleeding should be evaluated
Diagnosis and Staging
- Diagnosis uses Pap test (detects abnormal cells)
- HPV test (detects high-risk infection)
- Colposcopy (magnified cervical examination)
- Biopsy. Cervical cancer is staged from Stage I (confined to cervix) to Stage IV (distant spread to bladder, rectum, lungs, or liver)
Treatment and Prevention
- Treatment includes surgery (cone biopsy, trachelectomy for fertility preservation, hysterectomy), radiation therapy, chemotherapy (often combined with radiation), targeted therapy, and immunotherapy
- Prevention is highly effective through HPV vaccination (protects against most cancer-causing strains), regular Pap smear and HPV testing, and avoiding smoking
- Early detection dramatically improves survival
