Possible side effects of radiotherapy for cervical cancer
Radiotherapy can cause side effects during and after treatment. Sometimes side effects happen months or years later.
Order booklets or audio CDs about radiotherapy, how it works, having treatment and how it might affect you.
All types of treatment can have different side effects. Know what to expect to help you find the best way for you to handle them.
