What is Cervical Cancer?
Today, doctors recommend that women get regular (at least annual) Pap smear tests done. There is a good reason. Cervical cancer is cancer that develops in tissues of the cervix. The cervix is the organ that connects the uterus and the vagina. Cancer of the cervix is usually very slow in growing, and sometimes there are virtually no symptoms until the disease is well developed.

Complex Ovarian Cyst
It is not a common thing for women to have complex ovarian cyst. However, when this happens, the symptoms and the complications that may appear are very serious. Unlike the usual sacs filled with fluid that are found in the ovaries or on their lining, a complex ovarian cyst is characterized by simultaneous presence of both solid and liquid components. These abnormal cysts are divided into three categories.

What is Ovarian Cancer?
Women have two ovaries in their lower abdomen, one on each side of the uterus. The ovaries are part of the reproduction system. There are two jobs that ovaries do; they produce hormones (estrogen and progesterone), and they release eggs that travel down the fallopian tubes to the uterus.

Uterine Cancer and Early Detection
About 15% of cancers in women is uterine cancer. More or less 80,000 women were diagnosed in 2005 with cancer (pelvic gynecological malignancy) and a lot of these cases were uterine cancer. Of uterine cancers around 95% are endometrial. Uterine cancer mostly occurs in postmenopausal women and is basically abnormal cell growth in the uterus (neoplasm).

The Stages of Endometriosis
Endometriosis symptoms can vary greatly from one person to the next. Symptoms can be severe while the endometriosis itself is mild. Mild symptoms can be present or even undetectable and endometriosis can be very advanced. The endometriosis symptoms you experience could have no correlation at all to the extent or severity of the endometriosis itself.

Abnormal Ovarian Cysts - Types, Causes and Treatments
Abnormal ovarian cysts are very different from functional cysts since they have resulted from abnormal cell growth. However, that need not mean that they are all cancerous as most of them are simple benign growths. And none knows for sure what has caused them to grow.
