Symptoms of cervical cancer don't usually appear until the abnormal cells invade nearby tissue.
Symptoms can include:
- Abnormal bleeding
- Heavier, long-lasting periods
- Unusual vaginal discharge
- Pelvic pain
Abnormal bleeding may occur:
- Between menstrual periods
- After menopause
- After intercourse
- After a pelvic examination
These symptoms are not always a sign of cervical cancer. They can be caused by sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) or other conditions. Your doctor can determine the cause of these symptoms.
