What are the preventive measures for cervical cancer?

It is reported that sunlight has a strong influence on the pineal gland in the human brain, which can stimulate people's sexual desire and produce sexual impulses. In addition, summer is the peak season for the growth of bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms. Studies have shown that women are twice as likely to be infected with HPV in August when the sun is abundant as in the cold winter, which increases the risk of cervical cancer.

In recent years, more and more scientists have been committed to improving the treatment and prevention of cervical cancer. Studies have shown that almost 100% of cervical cancer can be prevented through a variety of preventive measures. Experts remind that the main preventive measures for cervical cancer are as follows:

Prevention method 1: HPV testing

Human papillomavirus is the main cause of cervical cancer, which is usually transmitted through sexual intercourse. Persistent infection may lead to genital cancers, mainly cervical cancer. Therefore, women should pay attention to menstrual and sexual hygiene. We can determine whether the cervix is ​​infected with the virus through HPV examination and monitor it at any time.

Prevention method 2: Regular cervical smear examination

Cervical smear, also known as cytology test, is the earliest traditional weapon used to prevent cervical cancer. It refers to taking a small amount of cell samples from the cervix, placing them on a glass slide, and then the doctor studies whether there are cervical cells with pathological changes under a microscope. If HPV and cytology tests are done at the same time, the chance of finding early cervical lesions can be increased. If both HPV and cytology results are normal, it indicates that the risk of recent cervical lesions is very low, and the next check can be extended at least 3-5 years later.

Prevention method 3: Gynecological acetic acid/iodine staining examination

Women with a history of sexual intercourse should undergo regular gynecological examinations, which are important for early detection of cervical cancer. Gynecologists can determine whether there are suspicious lesions in the cervix by the color development of acetic acid or Lugol's iodine solution applied to the cervix.

Prevention method 4: Cervical cancer vaccine

Currently, there are two vaccines for preventing cervical cancer in the world, which have been successfully registered and used in clinical practice in many countries around the world. Experts believe that in terms of the effectiveness of the vaccine, the most suitable population for vaccination is young women who have not yet had sexual intercourse; in addition, it is even more necessary for women with a history of miscarriage, early sexual intercourse and other high-risk women to be vaccinated.

Data from a clinical study showed that the vaccine produced record levels of neutralizing antibodies and memory B cells, which play an important role in protecting women from HPV infection and cervical cancer. A clinical follow-up observation also showed that the antibody levels induced by the vaccine can still be high several years after vaccination, indicating that the vaccine's protection is long-term.

At present, cervical cancer vaccine has not been officially put into clinical use in China, so women need to raise their awareness of prevention to prevent cervical cancer, develop good living habits, and go to the hospital for regular health checks.

The above is the prevention method of cervical cancer introduced by experts. Experts suggest: If you have symptoms of disease, do not delay diagnosis and go to a regular hospital for treatment in time to avoid delaying the disease and causing serious consequences.
