What are the threats to women's health?

If you want to have a healthy body, you need to take good care of your body, which will be very helpful in preventing diseases. Women's bodies are very vulnerable, especially when they are menstruating. If they do not take care of themselves at this time, it is easy to cause diseases. At the same time, women's immunity is relatively low at this time. What are the threats to women's health?

Threats to women’s health:

Breast

Breast cancer has risen to the top of female tumors and has become the number one killer threatening women's health. Professionals said that at present, the incidence of breast cancer not only has an increasing trend year by year, but also has a very scary phenomenon of younger age. Among the breast cancer patients discovered in China, the youngest is only 17 years old.

Therefore, once over 30, every woman should learn to examine her breasts by herself. The method of self-examination is to lie flat on the bed in a supine position, and press the breasts clockwise with the fingertips, but do not take a grabbing posture. If you feel scattered granular objects, you should seek medical attention and ask the doctor to help make the final judgment.

In daily life, you should eat less high-fat, high-protein, low-fiber foods. At the same time, you should smoke and drink less, eat less spicy and irritating foods, and eat more cabbage, kelp and soy products. You should wear underwear with steel supports and good support. In the stressful life and work, you should learn to vent and adjust yourself, relax your emotions, and combine work and rest. You should engage in outdoor activities appropriately, such as taking a walk and doing aerobics. The most important thing is to have a breast examination by a specialist once a year, either by breast ultrasound or mammography. Women over 40 need to have additional molybdenum-palladium radiography every one to two years to check for signs of malignant tumors.

cervix

Of all female organs, the cervix is ​​the most common site for malignant tumors.

Relevant data show that the damage caused by cervical cancer to women's health and life is second only to breast cancer.

Professionals say that China has 131,500 new cases of cervical cancer each year, accounting for one-third of the world's total number of cases. About 50,000 people die from cervical cancer each year, and the incidence population is concentrated in women aged 40 to 60. Cervical cancer used to be more common among middle-aged and elderly women, but now there is a clear trend of earlier onset.

Many diseases of the cervix will affect pregnancy and pregnancy: cervical erosion will make conception difficult and prone to bleeding and lacerations during delivery; cervical tumors will worsen during pregnancy; bacterial and viral infections of the cervix can also be transmitted to the baby. Among these, the disease with the highest incidence rate is cervical erosion. Cervical erosion is closely related to sexual life. Due to the barrier function of the hymen, unmarried women's vagina is generally not invaded by foreign objects, so cervical erosion rarely occurs. Once a couple has sexual intercourse, the vagina is in a relatively open state and is easily invaded by foreign pathogens.

For women of childbearing age, whether they have children or not, they should have a cervical cancer prevention check once a year. The entire process from the appearance of abnormal cervical cells to the development of cervical cancer takes more than ten years, and every examination during this period can detect such changes, thereby eliminating the tumor before it grows.

In daily life, if you find bleeding after sex, or if the color, odor, or properties of your vaginal discharge are abnormal, you need to see a doctor promptly. Because this means that there may be a problem with the reproductive tract or cervix.

These diseases pose a great threat to women's health. Women must seek timely treatment after suffering from such diseases, especially breast problems. Many women discover breast problems late, which makes the disease very serious and threatens their lives. Therefore, women should also take precautions against these diseases in their daily lives.
