cancer womb (cervix)

Mouth cancer womb (cervix) into health problem in developing countries. In Indonesia, patients with this disease is estimated 90-100 of 100 000 inhabitants.
In developed countries like America, there are 12,000 new cases were found in 1990. See high rates of patients, it is not surprising when the disease is a frightening specter for women. It was also because cervical cancer is highest in women and the first rank of the ten types of cancer in Indonesia. Figures patients with this disease, its true, can be pressed when the early discovery of cancer that attacks the mouth of the womb. The problem, according to dr Nasdaldy, SpOG, more than 70 per cent of people arriving late to the doctor treat. In fact, delay the inspection can be influential in life expectancy, as well as greater cost required. ''Prevention is cheaper,''he said in a seminar in Jakarta recently. Medical specialty of obstetrics and content Ginekologik Division of Cancer Dharmais Cancer Hospital Jakarta, is recognized when pre-cancerous cervix, in general, there were no symptoms. Symptoms that can be detected when there is bleeding after coitus and vaginal discharge which is not unique. When there is excessive vaginal discharge, foul smelling, and will not heal, we suggest that self-advised to consult a doctor immediately berobat. Because, this is a symptom commonly encountered in patients with cervical cancer. Examination of a doctor is needed, because not all white sign is cancer. With the examination will be known if an abnormal vaginal discharge is cancer or not. Other symptoms, he said, there is bleeding outside the menstrual cycle, especially when relating intimately. Just like the white, this phenomenon also requires examination of the doctor, because bleeding can occur due to hormonal balance disorders. Why are inspections needed when found to have symptoms? That's because the cancer is already at its stadium three of the swelling will occur in various parts of the body, such as the thighs, calves, or in his hand. The result could be more fatal, the delay in handling can cause death. For early detection, to do pap smears in women who were sexually active at least once a year by taking the rubber cervix from the vagina. Gynecological examination done by your doctor or midwife by taking samples to doctors lear cervical anatomical pathologists. We recommend that pap smear done on day 10-20 of the menstrual cycle. However, in the 24 hours before the examination, not having a husband and wife. What are the risk factors mouth uterine cancer risk? According to dr Nasdaldy, women who are married or initiate sexual activity at a young age (less than 18 years) have a risk of mouth cancer of the womb. The same risk can be experienced by women who take turns sexual partners. That is, women who have many sexual partners or husbands have many sexual partners. They are more susceptible to uterine cancer are women who often suffer from sexually transmitted infections in the area, which many have children, and women smokers. ''Women smokers have a risk two times greater than in female non-smoker,''he said. Prevention Prevention is far better than the cure. That's true, even though it is easy to apply. The problem is, there are many women who refuse to berobat yourself to your obstetrician has a variety of symptoms despite oral contact with uterine cancer. In fact, women already have symptoms affected servick, healthy women who already have berobat themselves to be detected since the spring. Prevention, according to Nasdaldy, can be done by three strategies: primary, secondary, and tertiary. Primary prevention is needed in all populations with a risk of mouth cancer of the womb. How, by providing counseling. ''Not only medical, but can in schools because there are many who do not know and do not care,''tuturnya. Secondary prevention is also needed on people who do not have symptoms. This is so that the incident numbers can be pressed and allow treatment as early as possible. Early treatment, as well as their costs a bit, the result even better. Whereas tertiary prevention that has been done on the disease ini.Ada a few things to be done for primary prevention in patients with cervix. But the important thing is lowering risk factors. For example, removing the cause of sexual behavior displayed by human papilloma virus infection (HPV). ''Girls are more vulnerable to HPV infection,''he said. Equally important to the nutritional factors. According to a medical specialist is the person with a good diet is easier to prevent this disease. It should be noted, no taboo food for cancer patients. Because the statement was not true to say that cancer patients should not eat meat. ''That's the myth,''he said. Nutrients, he said, is necessary for the prevention of this disease. Good food to eat is caretenoids, vitamin A, retinoids, vitamin C, vitamin E, and folate. Green and yellow vegetables are good for improving nutrition. Besides lowering the risk factors and nutrition, primary prevention should also be a vaccination. Immunization, said Nasdaldy, made active at a young age before a sexual relationship and are still in development. Preventive vaccine aimed at forming antibodies and given to healthy people. Vaccine treatment was given to people infected with HVP and immune system stimulation. World Health Organization (WHO) recommends the vaccine should be given the first time in five years in relation to sexually active after age 25 years or until age 65. The frequency of vaccinations, suggested the world body, done 2-3 years with a record of two consecutive negative.
