子宮頸癌
子宮頸癌係常見嘅婦女癌，以25歲到45歲嘅婦女最為常見。最近[咩時候？]嘅科學發現指出 Human papillomavirus（HPV）係呢種癌症嘅罪魁禍首[1][2]。
子宮頸改
子宮頸係喺子宮嘅下半部一個較窄嘅部份，直通到陰道。佢嘅功能係阻止陰道嘅微生物同空氣進入子宮，亦可以抵擋性交時受到嘅刺激所引起嘅炎症反應。
成因症狀改
子宮頸嘅細胞可能因為長期受到刺激或感染，而發生炎症反應，細胞異常增生就有可能轉變為早期嘅子宮頸癌。一般患者係無症狀。大部份最常見嘅子宮頸癌嘅症狀係性交後出血，陰道不正常嘅出血，以及有惡臭嘅陰道分泌物。
知唔知改
香港著名樂壇天后梅艷芳就係因為子宮頸癌而死嘅。
