Cervical Cancer: Why Women Need To Be Vaccinated
Health Vision
|March 2023
Cervical cancer is one of the most aggressive forms of cancer among women. Even though cervical cancer is curable, it remains the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide, with India contributing to one-fourth of these cases.
The Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is the most common factor that causes cervical cancer among women. This virus usually takes 15-20 years from the contraction stage to cancer development. Individuals diagnosed with cervical cancer develop a precancerous condition called dysplasia which, when left untreated, leads to cancer.
Most women contract this virus during their reproductive age with or without any symptoms. Most HPV infections clear without any interventions within two years. Only when the virus integrates with the cells, it progresses to cervical cancer, making regular screening and vaccination essential for women.
•Signs and symptoms of cervical cancer
• Abnormal bleeding - If you are experiencing excessive bleeding after intercourse, during the menstrual cycle and in-between periods, you must seek immediate attention and evaluation.
