Does chlamydia cause hpv or cervical cancer?

No, cancer is not a complication of chlamydia. Long-term effects of untreated chlamydia can include chronic pain or infertility, but not cancer. Almost all cervical cancer is due to HPV, a different germ from chlamydia. Chlamydia doesn't cause cervical cancer. However, the same risk factors for chlamydia are risk factors for cervical cancer -- multiple sexual partners, a history of sexually transmissible infection, etc. As for treatment of chlamydia infection, antibiotics are the most common but it will cause drug resistance and can be easily recurrent. Herbal medicine like Fuyan Pill maybe a better option compared with antibiotics, because it is made from Chinese herbs without any side effects and drug resistance.

Where does cervical cancer occur in a female?

Cervical cancer is cancer that starts in the cervix, the lower part of the uterus (womb) that opens at the top of the vagina.Worldwide, cervical cancer is the third most common type of cancer in women. It is much less common in the United States because of the routine use of Pap smears.Cervical cancers start in the cells on the surface of the cervix. There are two types of cells on the cervix's surface: squamous and columnar. Most cervical cancers are from squamous cells.Cervical cancer usually develops very slowly. It starts as a precancerous condition called dysplasia. This precancerous condition can be detected by a Pap smear and is 100% treatable. It can take years for precancerous changes to turn into cervical cancer. Most women who are diagnosed with cervical cancer today have not had regular Pap smears or they have not followed up on abnormal Pap smear results.Almost all cervical cancers are caused by HPV (human papilloma virus). HPV is a common virus that is spread through sexual intercourse. There are many different types of HPV. Some strains lead to cervical cancer. (Other strains may cause genital warts, while others do not cause any problems at all.)A woman's sexual habits and patterns can increase her risk for cervical cancer. Risky sexual practices include having sex at an early age, having multiple sexual partners, and having multiple partners or partners who participate in high-risk sexual activities.Risk factors for cervical cancer include:Not getting the HPV vaccinePoor economic statusWomen whose mothers took the drug DES (diethylstilbestrol) during pregnancy in the early 1960s to prevent miscarriageWeakened immune system
