Cervical Cancer is a type of cancer that affects the cells of the cervix in the lower part of the uterus that connects to the vagina.
According to the American Cancer Society, “Cervical cancer starts in the cells lining the cervix -- the lower part of the uterus (womb). The cervix connects the body of the uterus (the upper part where a fetus grows) to the vagina (birth canal). Cancer starts when cells in the body begin to grow out of control.”
