How much does cervical cancer cost?

I read up on cervical cancer because my aunt passed away of it, not trying to scare you. But, i did do a lot of research because in my sophomore year i was assigned to research cervical cancer and present it to my class in a powerpoint. Anyways, I found that, cervical cancer depends on your age, on the stage of your cancer, and how the screening and treatment goes. I found that including screening, all utilities used, treatment, and everything needed for the cancer, that if the cancer is an early stage it can cost approximately $20,255, and for a late stage it can cost approximately $36,912. If you are on medicare though it can cost between $0 to $50, depending on age, stage, and government guidelines. Don't let this scare you. I am pretty sure you can figure something out! There are a lot of things that can help you out. Put all your trust in God:)

Cervical cancer has one known causal organism; HPV (human papillomavirus). This is a transmissible viral infection, and the only known form of cancer that is actually contagious.

How long does it take for cervical cancer to develop?

Not very long. It really depends on what kind you have. There are 3 types of tonsillitis - acute, sub-acute and chronic. With the right medication it should take around 2 - 5 weeks depending on how bad yours is. If your tonsils are just red and swollen causing you to have a cough, bad throat, shivering and pains in the head and stomach will usually last around 2 to 4 weeks. Usually if you are suffering from a bad case which may include white patches on your tonsils can last well over a month. Like i said it depends how badly you're affected. You should see your local doctor - he will be able to tell you by looking at them how bad it is and how long it will last. If u suffer from alot of sore throats record every time you have one. You can then show your Doctor and he will be able to tell either if you need your tonsils out. But some doctors will say not to because your tonsils help fight of any infections that are tyring to appear on you.

it didn't hurt at all! the only negative points about it was -
that you worry and feel horrible before it
your arm hurts if you move it after (mine is stiff today) which is why i had the day off!

Do all women need cervical exams?

Answer 1

Yes! Always, of course, get a cervical exam. In fact, get a Pelvic exam and a PAP test regularly. It should be included in your regular checkup when you go to a gynecologist. For more information about the importance of cervical examinations, see the relevant page links, further down this page, listed under Related Links.

Answer 2

Your vagina cannot be stretched permanently by a gynecological exam - women give birth vaginally most of the time - think of the size of an infant's head next to a speculum - the instrument an OB/GYN uses during a regular exam/pap smear. This body part is made to dilate - become larger - and then come back to normal size.

Please, if you are a woman or a man, you need to make sure you are doing all you can do stay in good health. Johns Hopkins, a leading hospital in the USA, has a wonderful web site that addresses many health issues, including this one. If you have not had a pap smear or seen a doctor yet, there are great articles that will tell you what to expect, how often you should see a doctor, and other related things. Most doctors will recommend an exam once a year, but this is for you and your doctor to decide together. Please be and stay healthy!! :)
