{{Construction Site}}'''Cervical cancer''' is caused by the [[human papillomavirus]], also known as HPV. Circumcision advocates often use HPV as a scare tactic, falsely asserting that [[circumcision]] prevents, or "reduces" its transmission. Like all other diseases that circumcision is supposed to prevent, however, the best "evidence" that is offered is statistical analyses of carefully selected data. There is, as of yet no established mechanism whereby [[circumcision]] prevents, or reduces the transmission of HPV.

Cervical cancer HPV is cancer transmitted by sexual contact. Anyone who has any kind of sexual activity involving genital contact could get genital HPV.

The cervix is the lower part of the uterusAnd, because many people who have HPV may not show any signs or wombsymptoms, and is situated at they can transmit the top virus without even knowing it.

Cervical cancer develops when abnormal cells in the lining It is estimated that many people get their first type of the cervix begin to multiply out HPV infection within their first few years of control and form pre-cancerous lesions. If undetected, these lesions can develop into tumours and spread into the surrounding tissuebecoming sexually active.
