Cancer of the Cervix Description
|
|
A woman's cervix (the opening of the uterus) is lined with cells. Cancer of the cervix occurs when those cells change, which can affect deeper cell layers or spread to other organs and cause damage. If the cancer is found and treated early, as many as 90% of women who have it can be cured. The more advanced the disease is, the lower the cure rate. This is why finding it early is best.
This pamphlet will explain:
- Who is at risk for cancer of the cervix
- Symptoms of the disease
- How it is treated
