Is cervical malignant tumor cancer?

Cervical malignancy is cancer.

Cervical malignant tumors usually refer to cervical cancer, which is one of the common malignant tumors of the female reproductive system. Cervical cancer is mainly caused by high-risk human papillomavirus infection. Long-term persistent infection may lead to cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and eventually develop into malignant tumors. Cervical cancer may have no obvious symptoms in the early stages. As the disease progresses, symptoms such as abnormal vaginal bleeding, contact bleeding, and vaginal discharge may appear. Treatment methods for cervical cancer include surgical resection, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, etc. The specific treatment plan needs to be determined based on factors such as tumor stage, patient age, and fertility needs. Regular cervical cancer screening can help detect lesions early and improve the cure rate.

It is recommended that women undergo regular cervical cancer screening, including cervical cytology and human papillomavirus testing. Maintain good personal hygiene and avoid early sexual intercourse and multiple sexual partners. Vaccination against human papillomavirus can effectively prevent high-risk viral infections. If abnormal vaginal bleeding or discharge occurs, you should seek medical examination promptly. In daily life, you should pay attention to a balanced diet, moderate exercise, enhance immunity, and avoid bad habits such as smoking.
