Ovarian cancer is a familiar gynecological tumor and a serious malignant tumor that affects the normal life and work of patients. It also poses a serious threat to the health and safety of patients. Early detection, examination, and treatment must be emphasized.
Early symptoms of ovarian cancer
1. Gastrointestinal discomfort: Due to the compression of ovarian tumors, gastrointestinal symptoms such as bloating and loss of appetite often occur. If menopausal women often feel bloating and loss of appetite, and no gastrointestinal diseases are found after digestive examination, timely examination is necessary.
2. Abdominal mass: Many patients wake up in the morning with a full bladder and accidentally encounter a mass in the lower abdomen. When the mass grows rapidly, they must be highly vigilant. Therefore, regular gynecological ultrasound examination is necessary. If a tumor is small, it must be detected through ultrasound examination. If an ovarian tumor of about 5 centimeters is found, regular follow-up and close observation are necessary.
3. Menstrual disorders: About half of ovarian patients have abnormal menstruation and irregular vaginal bleeding, which is due to ovarian tumors altering the distribution of pelvic blood vessels and causing endometrial congestion
Can ovarian cancer be cured?
The selection of treatment methods is crucial for the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer is a common type of reproductive system cancer in women. Although its cure rate is relatively high in the early stages, early detection is difficult and can be detected through gynecological tissue biopsy. According to research on the treatment of ovarian cancer, if ovarian cancer patients can be diagnosed early, their survival rate may reach around 90%, but if they progress to the end stage of cancer, the survival rate is only 20%.
Precautions after treatment of ovarian cancer
Ovarian cancer patients have a high degree of malignancy, and it is recommended to adjust and control the development of cancer cells in combination with traditional Chinese medicine after surgery. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that tumors are not simple lumps, but local manifestations of internal lesions in the human body, caused by abnormal immune function and imbalance of yin and yang. Therefore, simple swelling reduction in treatment often has unsatisfactory results. Traditional Chinese medicine, from a holistic perspective, combines anticancer therapy with rehabilitation, and adopts the four in one therapy of medicine, heart, body, and food. Treatment is based on syndrome differentiation and holistic treatment, thereby improving symptoms, controlling disease progression, suppressing tumors, improving quality of life, and ultimately achieving the goal of prolonging the patient's life.
