Symptoms of HIV and Cervical Cancer

Most women are asymptomatic (experience no symptoms) until the cancer has become invasive (invades healthy tissue). Once the cancer has spread, common symptoms include unusual vaginal discharge, light vaginal bleeding (at times other than during menstruation), pain or vaginal bleeding during sexual intercourse and post–menopausal vaginal bleeding. Once the cancer has spread to the tissue near the cervix, the patient may experience pelvic pain and heavy vaginal bleeding.
