How is it treated? - Signed, interested, Dear interested: Cancer of the cervix, one of the common malignancies in women, can be detected in early stages by the Papanicolaou (Pap) smear test, Cancer is most readily curable in its early stages and women need to have a Pap test at least once a year, The Pap test can be done in a doctor's office or a clinic, where a sample of vaginal fluid is taken, and later examined under a microscope, The test not only detects early cancer, but precancerous conditions as well, Treatment varies for each individual patient and usually includes surgery or radiation, A study at the University of Southern California Women's Hospital has shown that the earliest forms of cervical cancer, dysplasia and carcinoma in situ, can be treated effectively on an outpatient basis by cryosurgery, the application of intense cold. Question: How long after having intercourse can a person be tested for syphilis? - Signed, Want to be Sure. Dear Want to be Sure: A blood test for syphilis does not become positive until three to six weeks after the chancre disappears, The chancre is a small, painless genital sore which will heal by itself without treatment. A word of warning, the chancre may not be detectable in the female, Question: In cases where women have had a "radical vulvectomy" can they have orgasm or have any clitoral sensation at all? - Signed, m.p. Dear M.P.: If they have had a radical vulvectomy (the removal of the external genitalia organs in women including the clitoris), one would think » that clitoral orgasm could not be produced be- f cause of the absence of that organ, However, k there are physiologists who claim that vaginal " orgasm will take place, which brings up the long j and heated debate as to whether there is a dif- ' ference between vaginal and clitoral orgasm, | The research findings of Masters and Johnson • should have once and for all dispelled the myth I that women have two kinds of orgasm, one . clitoral and the other vaginal, ) Apparently some women feel that orgasm by . vaginal pentration places them in a more trad- f itional female role and allows for more "together-j ness" with their husbands during the sex act, | producing more satisfaction. In any case there k have been several documented cases of women f who have had radical vulvectomies who can still k have orgasm, Question: Can a girl get pregnant without! actually having intercourse? - Signed, Ignorant. J Dear Ignorant: The answer is yes, This has I been proven through artificial insemination, Im- : pregnation my occur without penetration of the I vagina b> the penis, The reason for this is that . sperm are characteristically very motile, There | have also been reports in medical literature where i pregnancies have been observed in women with an J intact hymen, k (Questions should be addressed to Lana Starnes ' and Dr. Takey Crist, in care of The Daily Tar j Heel, Student Union, Chapel Hill, N.C, 27514,)!
