Initial symptoms are generally very subtle or even unnoticeable, especially in cervical cancer, which is the main reason why many patients ignore them. The initial symptoms of cervical cancer can be asymptomatic, for example, many women after 45 years old have no symptoms; some women who have already gone through menopause do not pay attention to gynecological diseases; and young women in their 20s have no concept of cervical cancer. However, cervical cancer does occur in these groups. Some of the early symptoms of cervical cancer are as follows: 1. Irregular vaginal bleeding Older women who have been menopausal for many years suddenly have menstruation again without any reason. The amount of bleeding is often not much, and it is not accompanied by abdominal pain, back pain and other symptoms, so it is very easy to be ignored. In fact, this kind of irregular vaginal bleeding is often the initial sign of cervical cancer, and many elderly patients come to the clinic with this symptom to get the initial diagnosis and timely treatment. Therefore, elderly people should be highly alert to it. 2. With cervical erosion Generally, cervical cancer patients are mostly accompanied by cervical erosion, and severe cervical erosion is the main cause of cancer. Young women who have cervical erosion for a long time or still have cervical erosion after menopause should pay enough attention to it. Contact bleeding is the most prominent symptom of cervical cancer. About 70%-80% of cervical cancer patients have vaginal bleeding. It is mostly manifested as vaginal discharge mixed with fresh blood after sexual intercourse or gynecological examination, or during forceful bowel movement. If older women experience bleeding after sexual intercourse, they should not always think that it is caused by improper sexual intercourse and ignore the possibility of cervical cancer. If bleeding occurs every time after intercourse, you should pay attention to it and consult a doctor in time. 4.Increased vaginal discharge About 75%-85% of cervical cancer patients have increased vaginal discharge in different degrees. Most of them manifest as increased leucorrhea, which is later accompanied by changes in smell and color. Under normal circumstances, the nature and amount of leukorrhea are determined by the rise and fall of ovarian function. In women of reproductive age, leucorrhea has cyclic changes; in postmenopausal women, leucorrhea is minimal. In patients with cervical cancer, due to the stimulation of the cancer site, the secretion of the cervical glands is hyperactive, producing mucus-like leucorrhea, so patients of childbearing age no longer have cyclical changes in the nature and amount of leucorrhea: postmenopausal patients, on the other hand, have an increase in the amount of leucorrhea, which is sticky and sometimes bloody. This kind of abnormal leukorrhea, including the increase of volume and the change of its nature, is the initial symptom of cervical cancer. 5.pain Pain often appears in the lower abdomen or lumbosacral region, sometimes it can appear in the upper abdomen, thighs and hip joints, and it is aggravated during menstruation, defecation or sex, especially when the inflammation extends backward along the uterosacral ligament or spreads along the bottom of the broad ligament, forming chronic parametrial connective tissue inflammation and thickening of the main ligament of the uterine cervix. Whenever the cervix is touched, it immediately causes pain in the iliac fossa and lumbosacral area, and some patients even experience nausea and other symptoms, which affects sexual life. Preventive measures of cervical cancer 1. Actively prevent and treat cervical erosion and chronic cervicitis, etc., and timely diagnose and treat cervical intraepithelial neoplasia to interrupt the occurrence of cervical cancer. Pay attention to avoid cervical laceration during childbirth. If there is any laceration, it should be repaired in time. 2. Popularize cancer prevention knowledge, carry out sexual health education, advocate late marriage and fewer and better births. Postponing the starting age of sexual life and reducing the number of births can reduce the chance of cervical cancer. Married women, especially perimenopausal women with abnormal menstruation or bleeding after sexual intercourse, should be alert to the possibility of reproductive tract cancer and seek medical treatment in time. 3. Pay attention to sexual hygiene and menstrual hygiene. Pay attention to the cleanliness and hygiene of both parties’ genital organs, preferably wear condoms during sexual intercourse, and reduce and eliminate multiple sexual partners. 4.Women who are at high risk of cervical cancer, including those who have had sex too early or too much, and those who have given birth too early, too much or too closely, those who have a history of promiscuity, indiscriminate sex, multiple sexual partners and unclean sex, women in areas with backward sanitary conditions and lack of knowledge of sexual health care, women with cervical erosion, tearing, chronic inflammation and vaginal infection, and women whose spouses are circumcised or circumcised should pay special attention to regular screening. Those who are in a position to do so can try cervical cancer pessary for preventive treatment. 5. If the male partner is circumcised or has long foreskin, he should pay attention to local cleaning and preferably circumcision. This can not only reduce the risk of cervical cancer in wife, but also prevent the occurrence of penile cancer in oneself.
