Cervical cancer is a condition that appears to be directly caused by HPV. This disease is located in the cervix tissues in the form of malignant cells. The condition flows from HPV to dysplasia then develops into cervical cancer often over a long period of time with very few symptoms.
Often due to the fact that a person hardly ever has any symptoms the only way to stay ahead of cervical cancer is to get a regular pap test. Usually the only time there is symptoms are when cells of the cervix have already become cancerous and are invading surrounding tissue. And then the symptoms might be attributed to something else.
