News from the IHS Health & Wellness Center
There is nothing most women hate
worse than receiving their yearly
notice that they are due for their Pap
smear and mammogram. Despite this,
many women gather theircourage up
and come to the clinic for this annual
event. They do this because of the
many ways that doctors have of pre
venting and detecting cancers early,
the pap smear and mammogram are
two of the best.
The cervix is the opening of the
uterus or womb. Cervical cancer af
fects about 13,500 women each year
in the U.S. Of these, about 5,000 die.
Native American women die from
cervical cancer 1.8 times more often
than other women in the U.S. Cervi
cal cancer is the third most common
cancer in women. However, cervical
cancer deaths have decreased by 70
since 1941. This is almost entirely
due to the development of the Pap
smear.
There are many risk factors for
the development of cervical cancer.
The largest risk is for women who
have sexual intercourse before age
18, especially within one year of
starting their periods. Most of the
risk factors are related to risk for
infection with Human Papilloma
Virus (HPV). HPV is the cause of
warts. Some types of HPV can cause
sexually transmitted warts in the geni
tal area. Infection of a woman's cer
vix by this virus can cause the changes
leading to cervical cancer. As well,
cigarette smoking makes a woman
four times more likely to develop
cervical cancer.
A Pap smear is a screening test
your doctor does to check for early
stages of cancer of the cervix. An
abnormal Pap smear tells your doc
tor that you may need further testing
and treatment to prevent cervical
cancer. Pap smears should be started
at age 18 or after onset of sexual
activity, whichever occurs first. Pap
smears are recommended yearly up
until age 65. They may be performed
more frequently in women at high
risk for cervical cancer.
Breast cancer is the leading cause
of cancer and the second leading
cause of cancer death (after lung can
cer) in women. Breast cancer effects
about 180,000 women in the U.S.
each year and causes about 44,000
deaths. Several studies have shown
that Native Americans do not de
velop breast cancer as often as other
women in the U.S. population. De
spite this, it appears that Native
American women with breast cancer
tend to develop it at a younger age.
There are several risk factors for
the development of breast cancer.
The strongest risk factor is age. Breast
cancer is 15 times more common in
women 80-85 years old than women
30-35 years old. Other risk factors
include having two first-degree rela
tives (mother or sister) with breast
cancer, never having children of hav
ing only after age 30 beginning peri
ods at an early age or going through
menopause at a late age, never breast
feeding and higher socioeconomic
status.
Breast cancer screening recom
mended by the American Cancer
Society involves three components.
The first is for all women over age 20
to perform monthly exams of their
own breasts. The second is for women
over age 20-39 to have a breast exam
performed by their own doctor every
three years, then annually after age
39. The last component is for women
after age 50 to have an annual
mammogram (a special x-ray of the
breast). Women between 40-49
should discuss their risk for breast
cancer with their doctor to decide if
they need mammograms during this
time.
The best chance that any woman
has of surviving breast and cervical
cancer is to find it early. Both of
these cancers are highly curable if
found at an early stage. If you have
more questions about this, contact
your doctor. Another good source
for information will be the 1999
Jefferson County Relay for Life spon
sored by the American Cancer Soci
ety. It will be held July 17-18, 1999
at the Madras High School Stadium.
This year's educational focus is on
breast and cervical cancer preven
tion. Hope to see you there.
