Does artificial abortion lead to cervical cancer? What should I do to prevent cervical cancer?

Cervical cancer is the most common gynecological malignancy. The incidence of carcinoma in situ is 30-35 years old, and the incidence of invasive cancer is 45-55 years old. In recent years, the widespread use of cervical cytology screening has enabled early detection and treatment of cervical cancer and precancerous diseases, and the incidence and mortality of cervical cancer have been significantly reduced.

Be careful about cervical cancer during artificial abortion

Artificial abortion is a remedy for contraceptive failure, not a means of controlling fertility. However, in life, many women of childbearing age do not take contraceptive measures, thinking that they are young and can complete artificial abortion even if they are pregnant. What's more, abortion is less than a month before sexual intercourse. It is well known that repeated abortions are prone to infection with human papillomavirus (HpV), the main pathogenic factor of cervical cancer.

If a sexual partner has HPV on his penis, the risk of cervical infection in women increases by 9 times. For women under the age of 18, the incidence of cervical cancer is much higher than that after the age of 18, and multiple abortions can also lead to a high incidence of cervical cancer.

The 1980s is the peak period of women's fertility. However, most of this generation are only children, lacking sex education, and most people do not know how to prevent pregnancy. For this reason, Dr. Xu Fei emphasized that unmarried young women should not have sex too early, because women under 20 are most likely to be infected with papillomavirus (HpV), which can induce cervical cancer. If an unexpected pregnancy is found, it should be carried out in a regular hospital for artificial abortion to prevent bacterial infection.

In addition, screening for cervical diseases should be strengthened. Women with a history of sexual activity for more than one year should undergo regular gynecological examinations, and women over 35 years old must undergo gynecological examinations every year. Symptoms such as irregular vaginal bleeding, contact bleeding, and vaginal discharge should be reported to the hospital in a timely manner and relevant treatment measures should be taken.
