YES! Been there... done that!! Went through it in Jan 1985, and my daughter was born Oct 1986 :-)
Yes, you can still get pregnant. With most types it is possible that you can still get pregnant if you havent gone under certain treatments than may leave you sterile. Some treatments that you can use during early stages of cervical cancer are erfectly safe to do, if in the futrure you would like to have children and the cancer didnt spread to fast on the cervix. All doctors have different opinions on how to treat cervical cancer, so talk to your for more information if you think you might have cervical cancer and want to have children, now or in the future.
Hysterectomy is only the removal of uterus and you therefore can get cervical cancer, you should continue with pap tests. If you mean a total hysterectomy then both uterus and cervix are removed and cervical cancer is eliminated.
No, it shouldn't.
Yes. Cervical cancer usually comes from HPV an std that many, many, people have and is asymptomatic. It has nothing to do with having kids.
There is no such thing as "mild cervical cancer". If leep was performed, it is more likely the woman had a precancerous lesion. This is very common, and will not progress to cancer if regular PAP exams are given. Yes, the patient can still have kids.
This is a question for your doctor, it partly depends how far on in pregnancy you are.
No. A supracervical hysterectomy is the basic operation as it leaves the cervix in place. The uterus/womb is removed and therefore there is no place for an egg to be fertilised. Youe will still need to have smear/pap tests as you will still be at risk of cervical cancer
Most cervical cancer is caused by damage due to HPV. If the woman is still shedding HPV on the cervix, a man could get that strain of high-risk HPV.
If you had cancer due to HPV, you had part or all of your cervix removed. Pregnancy is not possible if all of the cervix was removed. If you did not go to the hospital and have this major surgery under general anesthesia, you did not have cervical cancer; instead, you may have had cervical dysplasia treated with a LEEP. Contact your health care provider to get a clearer picture of your diagnosis and its affect on future fertility.
According to my gynecologist, they will wait to treat any cervical dysplasia until after delivery, as it can be risky to your pregnancy.
The studies suggest that it increases the risk of cervical cancer, and more cases of cervical cancer surfaced during the studies. However, they are labeled non-conclusive. I have personal experience, though. I have cervical cancer with a negative HPV test - meaning I do not have HPV but still managed to get cervical cancer. I used the NuvaRing just under a year ago. I have no other causes for it - I do not smoke, I am not overweight, I do not have a weakened immune system, etc. The only factor that I had was the NuvaRing. I am not sure how doctors go about linking a diagnosis with a cause but there is not a doubt in my mind that this was caused by the NuvaRing.
First, it is important to make sure the word "cancer" was used by your doctor. Far too often patients hear that they have a precancerous lesion and take this to mean that they have cancer. But if you do have cancer, it is still safe to have sex. Know that cervical cancer is caused by a viral infection called HPV which is spread sexually, so if your partner is not affected, it is essential that a condom is used.
