What are the causes of cervical cancer and how to reduce uterine damage

Although various technologies have been improved, in the medical field, there is still no way to treat some cancer diseases, such as some serious gynecological diseases, especially cervical cancer problems. This disease is a relatively high-risk cancer, and many women also want to know what is the cause of cervical cancer?

Causes of cervical cancer

1. Genetic factors: Cervical cancer is related to heredity. If women are stimulated by certain physical or chemical factors for a long time in their daily lives, their reproductive cells will be deformed. Their offspring often suffer from cancer after birth.

2. Multiple pregnancies: As the number of pregnancies increases, the incidence of cervical cancer increases. Women who give birth to more than 7 children are more likely to have cervical cancer than women who give birth to 1 child. The incidence of cervical cancer in women with 2 pregnancies is more than 10 times higher.

3. Male dirt: Studies have shown that the risk of cervical cancer is relatively high for husbands with excessive foreskin or phimosis and their wives. Male dirt can also induce cervical cancer during sexual life.

4. Viral or fungal infection: Herpes simplex virus type II, papillomavirus, cytomegalovirus and fungal infection may be related to the occurrence of cervical cancer. 80% of patients suffer from herpes simplex virus type II infection.

5. Sexual life: A large amount of data from home and abroad confirms that women who marry early, have children early, have multiple births, and have sexual dysfunction have a higher incidence of cervical cancer. The incidence of cervical cancer in women who have sex before the age of 18 is four times that of those who have sex after the age of 18, and the incidence of cervical cancer in women who have been married multiple times is even higher.

6. Cervical erosion, laceration and eversion: Due to the physiology and anatomy of the cervix, it is easily stimulated by various physical, chemical and biological factors, including trauma, hormones and viruses, which will increase the incidence of cervical cancer.

Preventing cervical cancer

① Do not be promiscuous.

② Promote late marriage, late childbearing and family planning to avoid cervical injury.

③Pay attention to hygiene and keep your lower body clean.

④ Men with long foreskin should be circumcised, and the smegma should be removed with water frequently to keep the genitals clean.

⑤ If hysterectomy is performed for other reasons, a uterine scraping examination should be performed before the operation.

⑥ Actively treat chronic inflammation and precancerous lesions.

In addition, to prevent cervical cancer, you should avoid smoking, drinking, and eating raw, cold, and greasy foods.
