3. 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.
4. 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.

6. 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.
7. 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.
8. There are 5 symptoms that have been identified by women
as the possible signs of gynecological cancer based on selfexamination:
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.
9. 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.
10. 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.
11. It is a fact that early detection is the only way to effective
treatment for cancer.
