Symptoms
Often, the early stages of cervical cancer are asymptomatic. When symptoms occur, they usually present as abnormal bleeding, or persistent vaginal discharge. Advanced symptoms include weight loss, appetite loss, back pain, fatigue, leg pain, and loss of urine or rectal contents through the vagina because of an abnormal tube-like passage between the rectum and vagina called the fistula.
