It depends on the women's body and how fast it can grow, in some it takes a long time and in others for what ever reason can grow very fast.

It depends. Some people develop full-blown cancer more quickly than others. (researchers are not in agreement as to what cause it to grow faster in some people than others). Cervical cancer is caused by a type of the Human Pappiloma Virus (HPV) which can be detected in your annual Pap Test. Also, there is a curefor cervical cancer which was recently developed and I think is now available that is completely effective if the cancer has not formed.
