Cervical Cancer

Cervical cancer is a type of cancer that affects the cervix, the lower part of the uterus. The most common symptom of cervical cancer is abnormal bleeding, which can occur during pregnancy, between periods, after sex, and in menopausal women. Other symptoms may include pelvic pain and discharge from the vagina. Cervical cancer is usually diagnosed through a Pap test, which screens for abnormal cells on the cervix.
