Women Ignore

Most women fail to recognize the signs and symptoms of gynecological cancers, and are usually unaware of the alarming signals unrelated to their reproductive organs, like increased urination and back pain, reveal a recent study.

Cancer specialists explain that there are 5 primary gynecological cancers affecting women

1. Uterine

2. Ovarian

3. Vaginal

4. Vulvar and

5. Cervical

Screening is only recommended for cervical cancer. Thus, early detection often depends on women’s self examination and ways to recognize the symptoms and make an early appointment with the doctor.

According to latest findings, it is illustrated that women should be aware of the signs of gynecological caner and learn how and when to seek help and care.

However, most of the symptoms of gynecological cancers are usually common and less alarming because the signs are treated as benign conditions. The only means of knowing its cause is to see a doctor at the earliest.

There have been several reports and estimates with respect to gynecological cancers from cancer specialists and experts. Each study revealed something significant about the 5 types of cancers that women develop and the death rate; ovarian cancer is considered to be the deadliest of all types of cancers in women, having the highest death rate.

Most women are usually concerned about vaginal discharge and bleeding, considering the signs to be very serious and recognizing them as the probable indication of cancer.

Many women also believe that skin changes of the vulva could be an indication that something serious may be underlying, though very few women have linked it with the signs of cancer.

Another group of women dictate that pressure or pain in the pelvis or pelvic range can be an alarming symptom

of cancer.

There are 5 symptoms that have been identified by women as the possible signs of gynecological cancer based on self-examination:

1. Vaginal itching and Burning

2. Abdominal or Back Pain

3. Fatigue and Tiredness all the time

4. Bloating

5. Urine urgency and failure to control.

All these signs are alarming enough to take a woman to a doctor; these are just the potential signs of a more serious problem lying within.

The only way to recognize a common sign to be an indication of cancer is to know what exactly is normal for a woman and what is not.

Women should understand their monthly period cycle properly – how heavy they have been, how many days their periods last, if the back hurts often, fuller feeling after a quick meal, etc.

Unusual bleeding, at unusual timing or heavier flow than usual, should be one of the reasons to see a doctor. For symptoms like bloating and others, it is best to check the menstrual cycle and observe the period of persistence of their symptoms before they seek help.

Unusually heavy bleeding could be a sign of various gynecological disorders, including cancer, which should be diagnosed and detected at the earliest. Delaying detection for years will only lead to abnormal and aggravated complications that can become irreversible.

It is a fact that early detection is the only way to effective treatment for cancer.
