What Are Possible Symptoms of Cervical Cancer?

Possible symptoms of cervical cancer may include abnormal or irregular vaginal bleeding, pain during sex, or vaginal discharge. Notify your healthcare provider if you experience:
• Abnormal bleeding, such as
o Bleeding between regular menstrual periods
o Bleeding after sexual intercourse
o Bleeding after douching
o Bleeding after a pelvic exam
o Bleeding after menopause
• Pelvic pain not related to your menstrual cycle
• Heavy or unusual discharge that may be watery, thick, and possibly have a foul odor
• Increased urinary frequency
• Pain during urination
Cervical cancer can also have no symptoms; this is why it is IMPERATIVE to have regular Pap smears done!
