Cervical cancer occurs when abnormal cells grow out of control on the cervix. The cervix is the lower part of the uterus that opens into the vagina. Cervical cancer is often caused by HPV and can be successfully treated if found early through a Pap test. Symptoms may include bleeding between periods, pain during sex, and abnormal vaginal discharge. Diagnosis involves a Pap test or biopsy to examine cervical cells. Treatment options include surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy.
