Intervention Type: Device
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

The goal of this clinical trial is 1. To test the sensitivity and specificity of using ACTN4 from menstrual blood for the detection of pre-cervical or/and cervical cancer. 2. If ACTN4 is not a promising biomarker, other biomarkers will be explored. 3. To develop an effective and non-invasive detection method for pre-cervical or/and cervical cancer. in Women with menstruation. The main question it aims to answer is: To validate whether menstrual blood could be used as a non-invasive means for the detection of pre-cervical or cervical cancer Participants will 1. Join the briefing session of the study 2. Sign the consent form and health questionnaire 3. Submit the cervical medical report(s) within 3 months or perform sponsored pap smear test 4. Collect the menstrual blood sample If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare The diseased group and the healthy group according to the medical reports they provided to see if ACTN4 from menstrual blood is a promising biomarker for the detection of pre-cervical or cervical cancer
