Uterine diseases also have a serious impact on women, especially endometrial cancer, which we should pay more attention to. Such diseases must be detected, examined and treated early.
Symptoms of endometrial cancer
1. Abnormal menstruation: the most common is irregular vaginal bleeding, which is more and less dripping and unclean immediately, and the amount of bleeding is not much at the beginning. With the development of the disease, the amount of bleeding will increase, but the amount of bleeding is rare. Patients without menopause may have increased menstrual volume, prolonged menstrual period, more or less, intermittent; People who have menopause have vaginal bleeding, which is called irregular vaginal bleeding after menopause in medicine, should first be alert to the possibility of endometrial cancer in the uterus.
2. Abnormal leucorrhea: a few people will have an increase in leucorrhea, which can be like pale blood in the early stage; In the late stage of infection, there may be purulent blood sample drainage and foul smell.
3. Pain: Generally, endometrial cancer does not produce pain, but people at the end of the stage will invade nearby organs and nerves, and the tumor is large, causing compression symptoms, causing lower abdominal pain, waist, foot, foot and other pain.
4. Abdominal mass: early endometrial carcinoma generally cannot touch the abdominal mass. When endometrial carcinoma combined with large uterine leiomyoma, or uterine cavity abscess occurred in the late stage, and transferred to the pelvic and abdominal cavity to form a huge mass (ovarian metastasis, etc.), the abdomen may contact the mass, which is generally solid, poor activity, and sometimes tenderness.
5. We call it "cachexia", such as advanced symptoms, fever, general weakness, pallor and anemia.
Endometrial cancer examination
1. Gynecologic examination: focus on the size, shape and texture of the cervix, the thickness of the cervical canal, and whether there is contact bleeding. Next, check the vulva, vagina, uterus and parauterine tissues (ovary, fallopian tube, pelvic lymph nodes, etc.). How to treat postoperative recurrence and metastasis of endometrial carcinoma
2. Cervical scraping cytology examination: gynecological routine examination is simple, feasible, economical and effective, and is the most important auxiliary examination and the priority initial screening method of cancer prevention census.
3. Iodine test and naked eye observation: the method is very simple and cheap, and can detect at least 2/3 of the lesions. At present, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends developing China's domestic visual observation. As a primary screening method for cervical cancer, smear the cervix with 3% - 5% acetic acid solution. Observe the reaction of cervical epithelium to acetic acid and conduct biopsy in the white lesion area.
