cervical uterine cancer.

Hello, today I will talk about   cervical uterine cancer.

The cervical uterine cancer is a disease produced for a virus called HPV (human papiloma virus) genetically designated as 16 and 18 types. This virus is transmitted by sexual relations with an infected person; this means that is a sexually transmitted infection.
This virus alters cells cervix mitosis, producing an uncontrolled cell development generating cancer.
The cervical uterine cancer is detected with a Papanicolau test.  That is a simple test that screens for cervical cancer. The test involves the collection of cells from the cervix to be examined under a microscope. It is not a diagnostic test, however, and if any abnormalities are discovered, more testing may be needed.
