What is cervical cancer? Common causes of cervical cancer

1. Viral or fungal infection Herpes simplex virus type II, papillomavirus, cytomegalovirus and fungal infection may be related to the cause of cervical cancer.

2. Cervical erosion Due to the physiology and anatomy of the cervix, it is easily stimulated by various physical, chemical and biological factors, including trauma, hormones and viruses.

3. Lack of exercise People who sit in one place for a long time or do not move for a long time will accumulate toxins, which is also a common cause of cervical cancer. Such as mahjong, chess and card activities, office activities, etc.

4. Premature birth or multiple births Premature birth or multiple births People who have vaginal births prematurely. As with early sexual life, immature sexual organs are easily disturbed by various harmful factors. Frequent births or multiple abortions also have similar destructive effects. After years of accumulation, this damage may lead to cervical cancer.

5. Relationship with sexual life and marriage Early sexual life means that the incidence of cervical cancer in women who have sexual intercourse before the age of 18 is four times that of those who have sexual intercourse after the age of 18, which is also the cause of cervical cancer. If women have early sexual intercourse and suffer from sexually transmitted diseases such as syphilis and gonorrhea, the incidence of cervical cancer is six times that of normal women.

6. Relationship with spouse Some people believe that if the husband has an excessively long foreskin or phimosis, the wife is more likely to develop cervical cancer. If the husband has penile cancer or prostate cancer or his ex-wife has cervical cancer, or if the man has multiple sexual partners, the wife is more likely to develop cervical cancer.

7. Others Smoking may also be a factor of cervical cancer.
