Cervical cancer is a disease that we are familiar with and afraid of. Its appearance seriously affects the life and body of patients, especially in the initial stage, it must be screened immediately.
Symptoms of Cervical cancer
1. Contact bleeding: Vaginal discharge (leucorrhea) mixed with blood drips after husband and wife live or after constipation. It is filamentous and dark red. For women over the age of 30 who live together with their childbearing couples, spotty vaginal bleeding after living together must be taken as an early signal of Cervical cancer.
2. Irregular vaginal bleeding: manifested as a small amount of non menstrual vaginal bleeding between two menstrual periods and vaginal bleeding after amenorrhea. The former is easily seen as menstrual irregularities, while the latter is easily seen as a manifestation of menopause. However, this irregular vaginal bleeding is the initial symptom of the patient in the early stage of Cervical cancer.
3. Abnormal Vaginal discharge: leucorrhea increases, accompanied by changes in color and smell. The symptoms of increased vaginal discharge are generally later than contact bleeding, initially with normal color and odor, gradually becoming serous secretions. In the late stage of cervical cancer, there are Misi like and water like vaginal discharge.

Cervical cancer examination
1. Gynecological examination: Gynecological examination mainly examines the size, shape, texture and thickness of the cervical tube. Through these examinations, we can make corresponding judgments on whether there is a possibility of Cervical cancer, and then check the vulva, vagina and muscle tissue near the uterus
2. Cervical scraping cytology examination: a routine gynecological examination that is simple, feasible, cost-effective, and is the most important auxiliary examination and prioritized initial screening method for cancer prevention investigations.
3. Colposcopy examination: it can quickly find the lesions invisible to the naked eye in the shadow. Removing a biopsy of a suspicious area during colonoscopy can significantly improve the accuracy of the biopsy.
4. Iodine test and naked eye observation: This method is very simple and inexpensive, but it can also detect 70% of lesions. Currently, the World Health Organization recommends China to use the naked eye observation method. After applying 3% -5% acetic acid solution to the cervix, observe the reaction of the cervical skin, and then take a biopsy method.
