Cervical Cancer

It is caused by a sexually transmitted virus, called HPV. It progresses from a benign lesion to a low grade lesion. It then progresses to a high grade lesion which can progress to a microinvasive and then invasive lesion

No.

During a cervical biopsy they take a small sample of the cervix with is the bottom part of the uterus which is visible in the vagina. They don't affect anything that regulates menstrual cycles.

Minority women and women of low socioeconomic status have higher rates of cervical cancer and an increased mortality rate.

If you have cervical cancer then nothing is safe. You will die if it is not treated.

Life is like a casino, and sometimes you throw craps and sometimes seven and eleven are the only stones that appear. Science and medicene are improving routinely. Early diagnosis means early treatment, early treatment almost assures survival, More then 90 percent of all victims of this disease that seek and receive treatment survive for ten or more years.

A mammogram is a safe, low-dose x-ray exam of the breasts to look for changes that are not normal. The results are recorded on x-ray film or directly into a computer for a doctor called a radiologist to examine.

A mammogram allows the doctor to have a closer look for changes in breast tissue that cannot be felt during a breast exam. It is used for women who have no breast complaints and for women who have breast symptoms, such as a change in the shape or size of a breast, a lump, nipple discharge, or pain. Breast changes occur in almost all women. In fact, most of these changes are not cancer and are called "benign," but only a doctor can know for sure. Breast changes can also happen monthly, due to your menstrual period.

I have a familly member who just diagnosed with stage 4 lymphoma. Stage 4 is an advanced stage and usually means that cancer has spread through out the body. This does not mean that is 100% terminal. You need to look at the age of the patient, their over all health and the stage together. You should always be realistic and prepare yourself for the worst but still try to be supportive and hope for the best. If you are asking because you or someone you know has been diagnosed. Then i wish you the best. Make sure to always get more than one opinion on treatment and that you are dealing with specialist. You want someone who specializes on your type of cancer as they will probably have the most information and provide you with the best course of action.

No, it shouldn't.

That depends on how far the cancer has progressed, what form of treatment one decides to get, the age, etc. A doctor should be able to give you a somewhat accurate prognosis.

This is why it's so important to go and have a pap smear twice a year. That is the way to know before it has gone so far it might be too late. So go see your doctor. Once you are in pain it might be too late and it can have spread.

Typically you don't see a breast cancer lump, but notice it when touching, washing, or scratching your breast.

Many people think that cervical jabs are REALLY painful. Well they are not! They're just like any other jab (shot), Most painful things that MIGHT happen; 1. Dead arm for a couple of days 2. Extremely mild bruising if you flinch when injected 3. Sicky (rare) 4. Faint (I did faint (: no worries!) 5. READ THE LEAFLET AND DON'T PANIC BECAUSE THEY WOULD NOT GIVE US A JAB THAT WOULD DAMAGE US NOW WOULD THEY?

YES! Been there... done that!! Went through it in Jan 1985, and my daughter was born Oct 1986 :-)

I had mine yesterday! I am 12 nearly 13! I am in year 8! you can have it at any age between 12 years old (in year 8) and 18 years old!

I was petrified before having it - my friends who had it before me didn't help! they were crying and everything and they had already had it! me and my bff were crying and on the way to the room to get it a lady said that we should both go to the nurses room and waited for ages (around an hour and a half) then we got it! one of our other bffs had had it earlier and was with us the whole time we were waiting! then we went at the end and i felt a absalute twit! it didn't hurt at all! plus i got a free biscuit!

they just sit you down ask if you have eaten something if not you can have a biscuit then ask you to look away - you can have a friend hold your hand with you! then they put the needle in your arm and you get a tiny sting and its out! it literally takes only 3 seconds! don't worry and be gratefull!

In 1951, Eva Peron's husband was running for reelection as president of that country. During the election, she was put to sleep for surgery in November, and was told that she was to have her uterus removed and that her surgeon would be the famous Argentinian surgeon, Ricardo Finochietto. After she was asleep, and without her knowledge, famous American cancer surgeon, George T. Pack entered the operating room and removed an extensive cancer of the cervix that had already spread to other parts of her abdomen. After he operated and before Eva Peron awoke, Dr. Pack left the operating room and headed to the airport for a plane back to New York. When she awoke, she was told that she had an uneventful removal of her uterus for bleeding. She was not told that she had cancer and soon afterward at age 31.

sometimes its hard to find out that you have cancer but some people that have cancer sometimes they get over it and don't have cancer again because sometimes they get special treatments, thanks Bi ma peepssometimes its hard to find out that you have cancer but some people that have cancer sometimes they get over it and don't have cancer again because sometimes they get special treatments, thanks Bi ma peeps

Stop taking caffeine in coffee, soda, and chocolate. This has helped me reduce the frequency of lumps in my armpit. Now, I get lumps only when I treat myself to chocolate (I go caffeine free with soda and coffee). I can actually plan for a lump if I ingest caffeine. Nonetheless, you need to have it checked out by a doctor, because it could be related to lymph nodes or even breast tissue problems. If the lumps come and go, caffeine and check-ups may be all you need to control the problem. If the lump is constant, see a doctor immediately. Good luck.

It depends on the level of treatment. If you have a minor case, and they don't remove your womb then you can still have a full pregnancy.

I'm not an expert but from my experience I was diagnosed with moderate dysplasia, which eventually got upgraded to severe dysplasia after removal of the cells. The Doctor I saw which performed the small operation told me that it could be hereditary. On speaking to my family, I discovered that my mother, grandmother and auntie all had a similar experience in their 30's too.

... Abortion causes the babies to die, I kinda think that might be worse than a defect...
