Cervical cancer, or cancer of the cervix, begins on the surface of your cervix. It happens when the cells on your cervix begin to change to precancerous cells. There are two main types of cancer of the cervix: squamous cell carcinomas and adenocarcinomas. About 80% to 90% of cervical cancers are squamous cell carcinomas, while 10% to 20% are adenocarcinomas. Watery or bloody vaginal discharge that may be heavy and can have a foul odor, vaginal bleeding after intercourse, between menstrual periods or after menopause and menstrual periods may be heavier and last longer than normal are some sign and symptoms of stage 1 cervical cancer. Most cervical cancers are caused by the virus HPV, a sexually transmitted infection. Human papillomavirus (HPV) spreads through sexual contact (anal, oral or vaginal) and can lead to cancer. Most people will get HPV at some point in their lives and not realize it because their bodies fight the infection. Receiving regular gynecological exams, getting Pap tests and practicing safe sex are the most important steps that you can take toward the prevention of cervical cancer. Surgery, radiation and chemotherapy are the main treatments for cervical cancer. Pap smear, colposcopy, and endocervical curettage (ECC) procedures are performed for the diagnosis of cervical cancer. Increasing awareness regarding cervical cancer in emerging economies and increasing funding for research and development in diagnosis of cervical cancer are expected to drive growth of the market during the forecast period.
Market Dynamics
