Cervical Cancer
Cervical cancer originates in the cells lining the cervix, the lower part of the uterus connecting to the vagina.
Persistent infections with high-risk types of human papillomavirus (HPV), a sexually transmitted virus, are the primary cause in most cases.
Early detection through regular screenings such as Pap smears and HPV testing is critical for timely treatment.
Prompt treatment significantly improves prognosis and survival rates for individuals diagnosed with cervical cancer.
