Question 1

please tell me how long it takes for to go from cin 3 (carcinoma in situ) to cervical cancer?

Accepted Answer

I don't know: We were often reminded during pathology training that tumors don't read books.  It best to see your doctor, and complete a course of treatment.  The cells in cin3 look a lot like the cells in invasive cancer.  I wish you the best.

Question 2

can loop excision show cervical cancer after punch biopsy showed high grade cin?

Accepted Answer

CIN: Yes, it depends on what's going on at the exact sight of the biopsy.  Either biopsy could have found invasion/cancer.

Question 3

my daughter, 37, is being worked up for cervical cancer.  is it possible that she could be neg for hpv and have cin iii dysplasia?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Most, but not all, cases of cervical dysplasia are associated with hpv. It is possible for her to have cin iii and be negative for hpv. It is important for her to follow her doctor's instructions.

Question 4

my doctor told me that i have cin 4 cervical cancer. she has already done a leep and i believe that she said that she has got it all. however, she wants me to get a hysterectomy done. what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Cervical cancer: She is absolutely right. The cervix is part of the uterus. She is trying to save your life!

Question 5

non-invasive cancer not detected in colposcopy. but cin1 was detected.
does it mean that it womt cause cervical cancer and it is  ot high risk hpv?

Accepted Answer

Not cancer: From the National Cancer Institute, a branch of the National Institues of Health (NIH):  "CIN 1 is not cancer and usually goes away on its own without treatment." Conceivably it could progress to CIIN 2, 3, and eventually invasive cancer, but usually not; and will not happen with routine treatment as probably advised by your doctor. Follow her advice.

Question 6

what type of medical check should one do after cervical cancer surgery?

Accepted Answer

PelvicExam Pap smear: Routine followup with your gynecologists or the gynecologic oncologists.  Pelvic exam and pap smear since one of the common areas of disease recurrence is the vaginal cuff.
Depending on stage, your doctor, may also choose to do radiographic imaging.

Question 7

how fast can an abnormal pap transform into cervical cancer, how long does one typically have before this happens?

Accepted Answer

Depends-"abnormal": There is a wide range of abnormal pap smear results. Some tests come back showing you have a virus called hpv which is extremely common in sexually active women. Pap smears can also show that the cells of the cervix themselves are abnormal, showing pre-cancerous or cancerous cells. Since "abnormal" can mean so many things, the time to turn into cancer will vary.

Question 8

is it true you can get cervical cancer from starting sex at a young age? i started at 14 and only have one partner.we are both hpv free.

Accepted Answer

Cervical Cancer Risk: It's the hpv that is the culprit; the reason "starting at an early age" is cited, is that it merely increases the chances of picking up the hpv virus, especially if one has multiple partners. Since you are monogamous and hpv free, you are at low risk. Just continue to get regular pap smears.

Question 9

can the cervical cancer vaccination hurt more than normal ones?

Accepted Answer

No: The shots give you immunity to a virus, which will reduce your chance of getting cancer.

Question 10

is having more than one period a month a sign of cervical cancer?

Accepted Answer

Need to see your MD: Cervical cancer in curable stages will not have any symptoms, that is the reason regular exam with  pap smear is very important for cure, having bleeding in between  my due to other causes like fbroids.
