How often should cervical cancer screening be performed

For women over 65, cervical cancer screening can be stopped if three consecutive screening results are normal, two consecutive HPV cytology tests have been negative in the past 10 years, and the last test was performed within the past five years. Women aged 21 to 65 should undergo cervical cancer screening once a year using both TCT and HPV screening. If abnormalities are found, annual screening is recommended until age 65. If both are normal, cervical cancer screening is recommended every three years for women aged 21 to 29; how often cervical cancer screening is performed depends on the patient's age and the test.

Why can’t surgery be performed on cervical cancer in the late stages?

If the physical condition allows, the patient can consider radiotherapy and chemotherapy. If the patient is currently in poor physical condition and has limited tolerance to the side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy drugs, it is recommended that the patient choose conservative treatment with the anti-tumor monomer ginsenoside rg3. Advanced cervical cancer cannot be treated with surgery because cancer cells will metastasize or expand the range of penetration, so surgical treatment cannot completely remove cancer cells. The risk of surgery is particularly high and the effect is not particularly good. For patients with early cervical cancer, since the cancer lesions are small and the penetration depth is shallow, the main treatment method is surgery.

How long can you live with cervical cancer?

Cervical cancer is the second largest tumor threatening women's health and is very harmful to patients. If it is not treated promptly and effectively, it may directly endanger the patient's life. The survival of cervical cancer patients mainly depends on whether the treatment method is appropriate and the patient's physical function. Whether the treatment method is appropriate is the most important factor affecting how long cervical cancer patients can live. Only when the patient's physical function is good and the immunity is strong can they resist the development of cancer and tolerate various treatments. If you find that you have cervical cancer, it is very important to go to a regular hospital in time, and then take active measures to treat the disease under the guidance of a doctor, and be sure to persist in treatment.
