The incidence of gynecological tumors has been on the rise in recent years, and the most obvious growths are ovarian cancer, cervical cancer and endometrial cancer, which have increased four times in 20 years. The incidence rate of uterine fibroids, the king of gynecological tumors, is even as high as 40% in adult women. Many patients with gynecological malignant tumors are unable to detect and treat them in time because of insufficient awareness of prevention.
Some people feel that tumors have nothing to do with them and are a matter for the elderly. What is old age? The aging rate of each human organ is different. For women, after 30 years old, all aspects are actually going downhill, which is old, not that menopause is old only after menopause.
Therefore, it is very important to prevent gynecological tumors, and a general gynecological examination is sufficient, preferably once a year. If you have the conditions, you should have a systematic whole body checkup, and all women who have sex should have gynecological checkups as much as possible.
How to prevent gynecological tumors from life habits?
With the promotion of disease screening, more and more cancer patients are found. Many people feel panic because of this. It is normal for people to be afraid of getting cancer, but there is no need to talk about cancer. After all, cancer is a small probability event. Most of the precancerous and early lesions of cancer can be detected and treated early (the early cure rate is over 90%).
For example, if a positive HPV infection is found in cervical examination, the patient will be very nervous and think if she has cervical cancer. In fact, not all HPV infections will lead to cervical cancer, only about 2% of the high-risk HPV infected population may develop into precancerous lesions in the future, and precancerous lesions may not always develop into cervical cancer, besides, even if precancerous lesions develop into cervical cancer, there is a long process of 10-20 years, and it is perfectly in time for treatment during this period. So regular checkups to detect problems as early as possible is enough.
The other thing is to avoid risks. One advantage of gynecological diseases compared to other systems is to have children early, in case a gynecological malignancy is found later, it will not be a big problem as long as the uterus is cut out. Therefore, having a child at a healthy age is a good preventive measure for gynecological tumors.
Finally: prevention is better than cure, I believe we all know this; regular checkups can help you to exclude these disease hidden dangers early.
