If we have a deeper understanding of cervical cancer and take appropriate preventive measures, the disease could be detected early.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cervical cancer is a common cancer disease among women in Hong Kong. According to the Hong Kong Cancer Registry, in 2021, cervical cancer ranked seventh among the most common cancers among women in Hong Kong, accounting for 3.1% of all new cancer cases in women. Recent statistics show that the age of onset of cervical cancer is tending to be younger, and women from 20 to 70 years old are also likely to suffer from this disease. Statistics show that the cure rate for early-stage cervical cancer is as high as 90%. However, since early-stage cervical cancer may have no symptoms, it is difficult to detect the disease. If we have a deeper understanding of cervical cancer and takes appropriate preventive measures, the disease could be detected early and the cure rate of cervical cancer could be improved. This article discusses what cervical cancer is, its symptoms and causes, diagnosis and treatment, and how to reduce risk of cervical cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is Cervical Cancer?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cervix is \u200b\u200blocated at the top of the vagina, in the lower half of the uterus.
