There is a kind of cancer that is "patriarchal" and does not even have any interest in men.
Especially it prefers those fat girls, as long as they are overweight, or fat too fast, this cancer will follow the pace of the devil and quietly approach.......
This kind of cancer is "endometrial cancer".
As the name suggests, endometrial cancer is actually a malignant tumor that occurs on the endometrium, and this disease is more common in perimenopausal and menopausal women.
If not treated in time, the problem of cancer cell metastasis is likely to occur, which in turn will have a greater impact on the patient's life.
What are the symptoms of early endometrial cancer?
First, abdominal pain
The main cause is a lesion or infection that constantly irritates a woman's uterus, causing it to contract, which in turn triggers paroxysmal lower abdominal pain.
Especially after menopause, due to the development of local lesions, it can even lead to narrowing of the cervical canal, and there is a problem of poor drainage of cervical secretions, and it is easy to have uterine effusion and abdominal pain over time.
Second, the vaginal discharge is abnormal
As we all know, women not only have menstrual periods but also ovulation periods, at this stage, the vaginal area will flow out of the fluid, but appear white, but in other stages, there is no such performance.
However, if it is plagued by endometrial cancer, the vagina of women in the early stage of the disease will emit thin white secretions, or a small amount of bloody vaginal discharge, at this time must be timely medical treatment, otherwise co-infection or lesion necrosis, there may also be purulent secretions, as well as accompanied by special odors.
Third, vaginal bleeding
If you are not in the menstrual period, but the blood flowing out of the female lower body is also one of the early manifestations of endometrial cancer.
Because of the rampant cancer cells, it will lead to irregular menstruation in women, even in the case of non-menstruation or after menopause, there will be intermittent vaginal bleeding and bloody secretions.
Fourth, the body is feverish and weak
Body fever is also a typical symptom of endometrial cancer, due to local cancer caused by infection, then the immune system will fight with it, but because the disparity is too large, can not completely prevent the development of cancer cells, so there is a fever problem.
The reason for fatigue is that during the onset of the disease, the lesions are easy to affect the surrounding organs, which in turn causes infiltration of the tissues, and the cancer cells absorb too much nutrients in the body, and the patient will feel physical fatigue.
Eating more soy products can effectively prevent endometrial cancer
It should be known that the occurrence of endometrial cancer is directly related to excessive estrogen secretion, and it is necessary to prevent the occurrence of this cancer by maintaining estrogen balance.
It is recommended that women eat more foods such as tofu, soy milk or bean sprouts on weekdays, because they contain soy isoflavones, also known as phytoestrogens, which have a two-way regulatory effect, and when the hormone level is low, it will make up for the missing estrogen, and if the hormone level is high, it will antagonize a part and assist in hormone balance.
Compared to other cancers, endometrial cancer can be detected in a timely manner
According to the data, endometrial cancer can be detected early, to a large extent, women themselves find abnormal bleeding in the vagina, which is also one of the early symptoms.
If a woman finds vaginal bleeding after menopause, a sudden increase in menstrual volume, or a sudden vaginal bleeding after menstruation, any vaginal bleeding that is different from normal menstruation is considered "abnormal vaginal bleeding".
Of course, it is still not accurate to rely on these symptoms.
Therefore, if such a phenomenon occurs, it is recommended to seek medical treatment in time and do a detailed examination. Screening is required for women with high-risk factors, even if there is no abnormal vaginal bleeding.
For example, women with a family history of hereditary non-polyposis colon cancer are advised to have an endometrial biopsy once a year from the age of 35.
