A Cell of Cervical Cancer

Cells are what make a man completely human. They make up almost all our body parts inside out. They are microscopic packages of living material and we have billions of them. These billions of cells can inspire faith in life or ignite the fear of death. Cancer is definitely the most frightening.

Cancer respects no one. Everyone is subject to suffer this disease any time in his or her life. We have heard of rich and famous people suffer and die with the poor ones because of cancer. Men are most likely to develop lung and liver cancers, while women are most vulnerable to breast and cervical cancers.

It appears that cervical cancer becomes more alarming these years than before. The Internet and other reading materials offer more information about this disease simply because there are more cases of cervical cancer now.

Studies have found a number of factors that may increase the risk of cervical cancer. Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) infection is the main risk factor for cervical cancer. HPV is a group of viruses that can infect the cervix. HPV infections are very common. These viruses can be passed from person to person through sexual contact. Some types of HPV can cause changes to cells in the cervix. These changes can lead to genital warts, cancer, and other problems.

Truly, cervical cancer is a threat for those who are too lackadaisical about themselves. But because of the busy schedules everybody seems to have, many almost forget to check on their own health. While the billions of cells in our body keep us working, we ought to be careful because it might be that one of those billions is a cell of cervical cancer.
