A member asked:
What is the likeliness of having cervical cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fairly rare in US: Cervical cancer used to be common and deadly in the us and still is in parts of the developing world. Over the past 40 years, it has decreased tremendously in the us due to pap tests and better treatment. Today there are only about 12, 500 cases per year of actual cancer in the us. If you or a loved one is having bothersome symptoms, a visit with a gynecologist is needed to be sure.
