typically the signs for cervical cancer are pain during intercourse, abnormal spotting or bleeding, cramping, etc. But the cancer would have to be quite far along before it would even cause symptoms. The only real way to know weither or not you have cervical cancer is to get regular pap-smears, cloposcopies.

Check the link below for the symptoms. You should get checked regularly whether you think you have it or not. I was 17 when I found out I had moderate dysplasia. As it was described to me by my gyno there are three stages, mild, moderate, severe then cancer. I was lucky to catch it as it could have developed very fast into cancer. How they found it? A pap smear came back abnormal. I had treatment for it called LEEP, they basically took a thin wire in the shape of a loop with an electrical current running through it and scraped my cervix. Then I went through pap tests every few months until they were sure it was gone. If you are having any problems whether you think it could be cancer or not, get checked! I had NO IDEA that I was that close to having cancer... there were no signs or symptoms. I am now 24 and have had no abnormal paps since and I had a very healthy 8lb 1 oz baby boy when I was 21.... I was VERY lucky to catch it before it developed.
