This information has been prepared to help you understand more about cervical cancer.
Many people feel understandably shocked and upset when they are told they have cervical cancer. This information is intended to help you understand the diagnosis and treatment of this type of cancer.
We cannot advise you about the best treatment for you. You need to discuss this with your doctors. However, we hope this information will answer some of your questions and help you think about the questions you want to ask your doctors or other health carers.
If you come across a word you don't understand, see the section What does this word mean? for definitions of some common medical terms.
