Symptoms of Cervical Cancer
Early-stage cervical cancer often causes no noticeable symptoms, which is exactly why regular Pap smear and HPV screening is so important. As the cancer progresses, the following symptoms may appear:
Abnormal vaginal bleeding — between periods, after intercourse, or after menopause
Unusual or foul-smelling vaginal discharge
Pelvic pain or pressure not linked to your menstrual cycle
Pain or discomfort during sexual intercourse
Bleeding or discharge after a pelvic examination
Lower back pain or leg swelling in advanced disease
Unexplained weight loss or persistent fatigue
If you have received an abnormal Pap smear result, a positive HPV test, or are experiencing any of the symptoms above, do not delay — consult Dr. Raj Kiran for a thorough evaluation.
Screening & Diagnosis of Cervical Cancer
Cervical cancer is unique among gynaecological cancers because it can be detected at a pre-cancerous stage through routine screening. Dr. Raj Kiran follows an advanced diagnostic pathway for accurate evaluation and timely cervical cancer treatment in North Delhi.
Pap Smear (Cervical Cytology) –
A simple, painless screening test that detects abnormal cervical cells before they develop into cancer. Recommended regularly for women aged 21–65.
HPV Testing –
Identifies high-risk HPV strains (especially types 16 and 18). Commonly performed together with a Pap smear for early diagnosis.
Colposcopy –
A detailed examination of the cervix using a magnified light source to detect abnormal areas and guide precise biopsy.
Cervical Biopsy / LEEP –
Tissue samples are collected for histopathology. LEEP removes abnormal tissue while also providing a biopsy specimen.
MRI / CT Scan –
Used to evaluate tumour size and determine whether cancer has spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes for staging and surgical planning.
PET-CT Scan –
Recommended in advanced-stage disease to detect lymph node involvement and identify distant metastasis before treatment.
Examination Under Anaesthesia (EUA) –
In selected advanced cases, this examination helps assess tumour extent and involvement of adjacent organs with greater precision.

Frequently Asked Questions
Cervical cancer is caused primarily by persistent infection with high-risk strains of the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) — particularly HPV 16 and 18. HPV is a common sexually transmitted infection and most women clear it naturally. In some women, the infection persists and causes abnormal cell changes in the cervix over time. If left undetected and untreated, these changes can progress to cancer. Regular Pap smear screening and HPV vaccination are the most effective tools for prevention.
Early cervical cancer often has no symptoms — which is why screening is critical. When symptoms do appear, they include abnormal vaginal bleeding (after intercourse, between periods, or after menopause), unusual discharge, pelvic pain, and discomfort during intercourse. An abnormal Pap smear or positive HPV test is often the first indication. If symptoms persist, consult a cervical cancer specialist in North Delhi promptly.
Yes, in carefully selected cases. For very early-stage disease, procedures like LEEP, cone biopsy, or radical trachelectomy can treat the cancer while preserving the uterus. Trachelectomy may be suitable for young women with Stage IA2–IB1 tumours measuring 2 cm or smaller who wish to retain fertility. Dr. Raj Kiran evaluates each patient individually to determine if fertility-sparing surgery is appropriate.
Yes. Dr. Raj Kiran performs robotic surgery for cervical cancer in Delhi, including robotic-assisted radical hysterectomy. Robotic surgery offers excellent precision with less blood loss, smaller scars, reduced pain, and faster recovery while maintaining strong oncological outcomes.
An abnormal Pap smear does not necessarily mean cancer. It often indicates pre-cancerous changes (CIN) that are highly treatable. The next step is usually a colposcopy. If abnormal areas are identified, a biopsy or LEEP procedure may be performed to remove and examine the tissue.
