Is cervical cancer dangerous?

Cervical cancer has developed into a malignant state and is generally called endometrial cancer. When it comes to cancer, everyone will be very worried, but as a type of cancer, it is possible for it to spread and be slow to heal, so if it is controlled in time, it can still save lives. Next, let’s actually understand how serious cervical malignant tumors are?

Most uterine malignancies occur in the uterine wall and are called endometrial cancer. Uterine sarcomas with a higher degree of malignancy occur in the endometrial muscle layer, and the incidence rate is less than 5% of all cases (only endometrial cancer). If left untreated, endometrial cancer can invade the bladder or duodenum through the endometrium, or spread externally to the vagina, fallopian tubes, uterus, ovaries, or more distant organs of the body. Fortunately, endometrial cancer grows slowly and is often diagnosed before it spreads to distant sites.

High-risk women for uterine cancer include postmenopausal women who have an early or late first menstruation; women who suffer from obesity, diabetes, or high blood pressure; women who have few or no pregnancies; women who are infertile; women who have irregular menstruation; or women who have uterine wall hyperplasia. Women who take tamoxifen for breast cancer have a low risk of developing the disease. However, women who take emergency contraception are almost half as likely to have uterine cancer as postmenopausal women who do not take the drug.

If you suffer from cervical malignant tumor, surgery is still the main treatment for this type of disease. Radiotherapy is basically required after surgery. Before surgery, you need to do a comprehensive physical examination to see if your health condition is suitable for surgery. However, the side effects of radiotherapy are relatively large. If radiotherapy is to be carried out, it would be better to combine it with traditional Chinese medicine to promote treatment. Chinese herbal medicine is relatively mild and has no side effects, and patients can generally accept it.

The above is the relevant content about whether cervical malignant tumor is serious. In fact, conditions such as cervical malignant tumors are still serious. This type of disease generally requires surgical treatment, and radiotherapy may be required in the middle and late stages depending on the situation. However, it is worth mentioning that cervical malignancy can be controlled through surgical treatment.
