Cervical cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer deaths worldwide. It’s a form of cancer that starts in the cells of the cervix and progresses to other areas of your body when it ends up reaching more malignant stages. Cervical cancer is a form of cancer that slowly develops over time. Before cancer begins to appear in the cells, the cancer cells go through a stage called dysplasia, in which abnormal cells began to appear in the tissue. As time progresses, if no strict action is taken on time, these cells might develop into cancer cells and start to grow and spread more deeply into other areas of your body.
This is why it’s crucial to take the necessary actions and preventive measures to stop it in its early stages before it progresses to more malignant stages. At Rhea IVF and Women’s Hospital, we are fully committed to enhancing the health and welfare of all women. As a full-fledged healthcare facility, we aspire to make access to advanced and integrated healthcare services easy and accessible. As cervical cancer is one of the deadliest forms of cancer, at Rhea’s IVF and Women’s Hospital we encourage women to get screened and tested for cervical cancer. As one of the few hospitals dedicated to women’s health in Kallakurichi, we offer exclusive screening and innovative treatments for cervical cancer.
Colposcopy: This is an advanced technique that allows your cervix to be examined closely. It’s usually used as a diagnostic procedure. In this procedure, the doctor will examine your vagina and other areas of your reproductive system through a colposcope to spot abnormal or cancerous growth.
LEEP Surgery: Leep stands for loop electrosurgical excision procedure. This is a treatment that is used to remove abnormal cells from your cervix. This is usually done during the early stages to prevent further cancerous growth
Cryosurgery: In this procedure, cold chemicals such as liquid nitrogen are used to destroy suspicious cells in the cervix.
As one of few Hospitals in Kallakurichi that’s exclusively dedicated to women’s health, our core focus is to facilliate women from Kallakurichi and its surrounding rural areas with access to quality and standard healthcare services. We hope that through our services and our efforts to increase awareness, we can encourage more women to take their health seriously.
