HPV infection

(HPV) Human Papillomavirus infection is a sexually transmitted infection that affects the reproductive parts of both men and women. About 90% of HPV is harmless which lingers for only about 2 months and clears by  2 years. But, some HPV can progress and cause cervical cancer (More on this later).

Liquid Based cytology (LBC) Pap Smear

Liquid Based Cytology Test differs from the Pap Smear test in a way that LBC involves collecting cervical cells in a liquid medium, providing a clearer sample for analysis.

LBC1

HPV Vaccine

Human papillomavirus vaccines are vaccines that prevent infection by certain types of human papillomavirus. Available HPV vaccines protect against either two, four, or nine types of HPV.

FAQs

Gynecological cancers refer to cancers that originate in the female reproductive system, including the cervix, ovaries, uterus, vulva, and vagina.

Risk factors vary depending on the type of cancer but may include HPV infection, smoking, family history, obesity, certain genetic mutations, and hormonal factors.

 

Symptoms can vary but may include abnormal vaginal bleeding, pelvic pain or pressure, abnormal vaginal discharge, changes in bladder or bowel habits, and pelvic masses or lumps.

Diagnosis typically involves a combination of pelvic exams, Pap tests ( Liquid Based Cytology-LBC), HPV tests, imaging tests (such as ultrasound or MRI), and biopsy.

Treatment options may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, hormone therapy, and immunotherapy, depending on the type and stage of cancer.

Some gynecological cancers can be prevented through vaccination against HPV, practicing safe sex, quitting smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, and attending regular screenings.

While some gynecological cancers can be linked to inherited genetic mutations, such as BRCA mutations for ovarian and breast cancers, the majority of cases occur sporadically. Cancer of uterus is hereditary in 10% cases.

Prognosis varies depending on the type and stage of cancer, as well as individual factors such as age and overall health. Early detection and treatment often lead to better outcomes.

Depending on the type and stage of cancer, as well as the treatment received, gynecological cancers may impact fertility and pregnancy. Fertility-sparing options may be available in some cases.

Offer emotional support, help with daily tasks, accompany them to medical appointments, and encourage them to seek out support groups or counselling services. Additionally, respecting their wishes and providing a listening ear can be invaluable.
