Cervical cancer, especially in its earliest stages, often causes no symptoms. That is why it is very important to see your doctor for regular screening.
When symptoms do occur, they may include the following:
- pain or bleeding during or after intercourse, douching, or following a pelvic examination
- pelvic pain
- unusual discharge from the vagina
- blood spots or light bleeding other than a normal period
These symptoms can be caused by cervical cancer, or by a number of serious conditions, and should be evaluated promptly by a medical professional.
