#early detection

Cervical cancer is a type of cancer that develops in the cervix, which is the lower part of the uterus that connects to the vagina. It is the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide and  can affect women of all ages. However, it is most often diagnosed in women between  35 and years of age.

 Causes of cervical cancer:

 The main cause of cervical cancer is infection with  human papillomavirus (HPV), a sexually transmitted virus. There are more than 100 different types of HPV, and some types can cause cervical cancer. Other factors that can increase the risk of  cervical cancer include smoking,  a weakened immune system,  a family history of cervical cancer, and  multiple sexual partners. 

 Symptoms of cervical cancer:

 Cervical cancer does not necessarily cause symptoms in its early stages. As the cancer progresses, symptoms may include abnormal vaginal bleeding, pelvic pain or discomfort, pain during intercourse, and unusual vaginal discharge. It is important to note that these symptoms can be caused by other diseases, so it is important to consult a doctor to get a proper diagnosis. 

 Prevention and early detection of cervical cancer:

 The most effective way to prevent cervical cancer is  the HPV vaccine. The HPV vaccine protects against the types of HPV that cause most cases of cervical cancer, as well as against other types of HPV that can cause other types of cancer. The vaccine is recommended for  males and females between  9 and 26 years of age.

 Regular cervical cancer screening is also important for early detection. A Pap test is a test that checks for abnormal cells on the cervix. It is recommended that women start regular Pap tests from the age of 21. In addition, the new  HPV test can also detect the presence of the virus that causes cervical cancer. Women should discuss with their healthcare provider which exams are right for them. 

 Treatment of cervical cancer:

 Treatment of cervical cancer depends on the stage of the cancer and other factors such as the woman's age and general health. Treatment options may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of these treatments.

  In summary, cervical cancer is a common female cancer  that can be prevented by vaccination and detected early by regular screening. Women should consult with their health care provider to determine  appropriate screening and vaccination. If cervical cancer is diagnosed, early treatment can lead to a better outcome.

I had a couple of dms I wanted to respond to this morning ,

But I went off the rails with another topic , and ran out of time bf work😥 .

I am writing a general post bc I can not respond to dms per Tumblr’s annoyance with me .

Anywhose

When I look at the selfies , nudes , pics in general that you post on Tumblr …

I notice things from a medical Pov .

Sometimes I exam your eyes, cuticles, lesions , etc

If you post nudes , I notice your breast .

If I observe inverted nipples , lumpy or texture on the breast ,

I WILL write you a dm urging you to see your doctor…whether I know you or not .

This is weird and invasive, I am aware , but it could possibly save a life

Please take care of not only your mental health , but physical health as well ;

Schedule your yearly pap and mammogram if you are noticing changes in your breast regardless of your age or sex .

Remember,

We are fam , and if we can post nudes we can share anything 🤗

Including potential life saving information 💡

I found out today that my uncle has cancer just like me. He always takes care of himself so well, I wouldn't have thought it was possible. Of course I was wrong. It's not really about taking care of yourself. Someone you think is very healthy can get sick too.

My uncle's voice had been low for a long time, and we found out he had a tumor in his throat.

So I am an eager beaver and I found out tests are cheaper than when we had our second babe and especially our first. So I bought some and tested once I got home.

First test experience:

- I don’t think I had enough pee to do the test

- The line showed up about 20 mins after I took it, but I wasn’t trying to read into it.

Second test experience:

- I took it around 4:20pm

- The line showed up before the 3 minute timer

- I had more than a ton of pee

When industrial product designer Hans Ramzan lost a beloved aunt to AIDS, in part because of a late diagnosis, he was inspired to create an inexpensive HIV test that could help people get diagnosed quickly and during earlier stages of the disease.
