Uterine cancer is emerging as a serious health concern among women, and timely diagnosis is the most effective way to ensure successful treatment and a healthy life. This was highlighted by Dr. Alka, Senior Oncologist at Abrol Hospital (A Unit of EMC Hospitals), Gurdaspur, while addressing the issue.
Dr. Alka explained that the leading causes of uterine cancer may include hormonal imbalance, obesity, late menopause, family history of cancer, and an unhealthy lifestyle.
She further pointed out the warning signs of the disease: abnormal vaginal bleeding, bleeding between menstrual cycles, pelvic pain, sudden weight loss, and constant fatigue. Ignoring these symptoms, she cautioned, could lead to severe complications in the future.
Diagnosis of uterine cancer can be done through ultrasound, biopsy, and advanced scanning techniques. Early detection allows doctors to confirm the disease and begin treatment without delay.
Treatment options include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and hormonal therapy, with specialists tailoring the plan according to the stage of the disease and the patient’s overall health.
Appealing to women, Dr. Alka urged: “If you experience any unusual bleeding or other related symptoms, consult a specialist immediately. Timely identification and the right treatment can effectively cure uterine cancer.”
Abrol Hospital (A Unit of EMC Hospitals), Gurdaspur, continues its dedicated efforts in women’s healthcare, offering advanced treatment through its team of expert doctors and state-of-the-art technology.
