What Causes Cervical Cancer

  Women don’t get cervical cancer for no reason, but as a result of a combination of causes. For example, there are viral infections, number of sexual intercourse and delivery, smoking and drinking, STD infections, fungal infections, poor nutrition, lack of personal hygiene, and other reasons that may cause cervical cancer.  One of the most common factors that cause cervical cancer is viral infection. It is believed that HPV virus is related to the occurrence of cervical cancer, and human papilloma virus type 16 and 18 infection is the most common, and the chance of cervical cancer is several times higher for people who have early sexual intercourse or disordered sexual life than the general population. Early sexual intercourse or sexual disorders are more likely to cause cervical cancer than the general population. Young childbirth, multiple births and abortions can cause irreversible damage to the cervix and bring about many new gynecological disorders. Smoking and drinking, poor hygiene, poor nutrition and other factors are also important triggers of cervical cancer.  Therefore, every woman should know how to protect herself, develop good living habits, refrain from high-risk sex, and strengthen physical exercise to improve the quality of her body.
