Today the disease that causes the highest number of human deaths is certainly the cancer. The cancer is the disease of the 21 century. Until now, the doctors haven’t found a cure, because of the rapid multiplication capacity of the tumor cells. In a relatively short period of time the cancer affects all the cells of the organism and if is not diagnosed in the early stages it causes death. The cancer treatment is painful, the chemotherapy has very hard effects on the body, the patients will suffer hair loss, weight loss, teeth loss.



The symptoms of the cervical cancer are:

-the loss of the appetite and the weight loss;
-unjustified tiredness;
-pelvic pain, back pain;
-bleeding, vaginal discharge;
-fractures may occur;
-the pain and the vaginal discharge occurring during the sexual intercourse (the Human Papilloma Virus infection may be present for a long period of time without any symptoms present, that’s why in the majority of cases the cancer is detected to late).

There are 2 main types of cervical cancer, but many other cancers may originate in the cervical area. The principal types of cervical cancers are: the cervical cancer with squamous cells and  adenocarcinoma.

The infections with the Human Papilloma Virus are very dangerous because over 70% of the cancer cases are generated by the 16 and 18 types of the Human Papilloma Virus. The Human Papilloma Virus exists in over 250 types, but only the 16 and 18 type are responsible for generating cancer.

There are 2 types of treatment according to the evolution phase of the disease. In the incipient phase the treatment is to surgical remove the tumor; in advanced stages the treatment is radiotherapy and chemotherapy. There is another possibility of a combined treatment with Cisplatina and Hycamtin, for the cases when the disease has advanced to the 4^th B stage. The survival ratio after 5 years from the cancer diagnosis is good, approximately 80-90% for the cancer cases discovered in the first stage and 50-65% for the cancer cases discovered in stage two.  The forecast decrease in cancer cases discovered too late when the cancer formations have developed in metastasis.

All the doctors, no matter what their specialization, recommend us a healthy lifestyle, because a healthy lifestyle means a strong organism that may be able to fight with any disease. There were cancer cases when the disease disappeared without any treatment, because the organism fought through its self defense power with the disease.

The doctors recommend us a few simple, practical life rules:

-to adopt a poor meat diet and a rich fruits and vegetable diet;
-to drink at least 2 l of water per day (the water is very important because helps up to detoxify the organism)
-to take periodic medical controls for detect the disease in incipient phases
-to start the sexual life at an appropriate age and without having many different partners.



In Romania, there are 5 women who dye everyday because of the cervical cancer, and in Europe 40 women dye everyday because of these disease.



Like in many other disease cases it is advisable to prevent then to treat (we all have to take into consideration the fact that until now doesn't exist any treatment for the advanced stages).

The cancer is a very ruthless disease that doesn’t have a cure, and who can affect everybody no matter the age or sex.
