Cervical Cell Changes

Satisfactory Essays

The body has about a million or more cells. Cells are really small smaller than fleas. You can not see them anywhere only with a microscope. Cells are the building blocks of life. Different kind of cells come together to form the tissues and organs of the body. Cervical cancer is caused by severe abnormal changes in the cells of the cervix. Most precancerous or cancerous cell changes occur in the cervix at the transformation zone, because these cells normally undergo constant change. During this natural process of change, some cervical cells can become abnormal if you are infected with high-risk types of HPV. Other things may play a role in causing cervical cancer, such as having more than one sex partner or smoking cigarettes.
