[The role of sexual activity in the development of precancerous and early stages of cervix cancer].

100 women average age 30.7 years with colposcopic and/or cytologic suspicion on preinvasive or early invasive cervical carcinoma and 100 women in the same age and with normal cervical tissue as a control group have been compared with regard to their sexual activity. In this study risk factors are early onset of sexual activity combined with frequent change and insufficient sexual hygiene. These women should be screened intensively.
