Stage 1 of Cervical Cancer - The cancer is in the cervix itself.

Stage 2 of Cervical Cancer - Cancer has spread to the tissues around the cervix but not to the lining of the pelvis or the lower part of the vagina.

Stage 3 of Cervical Cancer - Cancer has reached the lower part of the vagina and/or the pelvic lining.

Stage 4 of Cervical Cancer – Cancer has spread to the intestines, bladder, or other organs, such as the lungs.
