A member asked:
Would dr be able to see cervical cancer when examining cervix? (saw dr due to bleeding after sex and she did internal examination said looks healthy)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, It is visible: Cancer of the cervix produces a growth on the surface of the cervix, so nearly all cervix cancers are visible to the eye. if the cervix looked healthy to your doctor, then there is no obvious Cancer there. A Pap smear must have been done, so follow up on that report which can reveal the pre-cancerous condition called in- situ cancer, which is something not considered cancerous.
