Symptoms of mid-stage cervical cancer

Cervical cancer is a common disease in women. Mid-stage symptoms of cervical cancer can easily lead to vaginal bleeding or vaginal discharge, and can easily lead to severe bleeding during intercourse. It can also easily cause a feeling of heaviness and pain in the lower abdomen. It is very harmful to the health of the body and needs timely treatment.

What are the mid-stage symptoms of cervical cancer?

Mid-stage cervical cancer means that the cervical cancer tumor has expanded beyond the uterus but has not reached the pelvic wall or the lower third of the vagina. The main symptom is contact bleeding, that is, vaginal bleeding after sexual intercourse or gynecological examination. It may also manifest as irregular vaginal bleeding, or prolonged and increased menstrual flow. Elderly postmenopausal patients may experience irregular vaginal bleeding. Generally speaking, the amount of bleeding varies depending on the size of the lesion and the extent of invasion of blood vessels. Exogenous cancer bleeds the earliest and in large amounts; endogenous cancer bleeds later and is accompanied by symptoms of vaginal discharge. Most patients may have white bloody, or thin, watery, and fishy vaginal discharge.

In the middle stage of cervical cancer, there will generally be irregular vaginal bleeding, increased vaginal discharge, bleeding during sexual intercourse, and some patients will have symptoms of lower abdominal pain. If there is an infection, there will also be a foul odor.

Cause Analysis

Cervical cancer is a common gynecological disease mainly caused by HPV virus infection. Vaginal bleeding in cervical cancer is mainly caused by rupture of tumor blood vessels. The main symptom of cervical cancer is increased vaginal discharge.

Suggested actions

It is recommended that patients see a gynecologist in a timely manner, complete relevant tests and examinations, and correctly grade cervical cancer. Generally, surgical treatment is not recommended for patients in the middle and late stages, and conservative treatment with radiotherapy and chemotherapy is recommended.

Cervical cancer mid-stage

In the middle stage of cervical cancer, it has already infiltrated the pelvic wall and vagina. Surgery cannot completely remove the lesions, so radiotherapy is needed. Radiation therapy can achieve the same effect as surgery and remove the lesion. In addition, it can also be combined with systemic chemotherapy to control the metastasis of cancer cells.

Cause Analysis

Cervical cancer is a malignant tumor that can spread to various organs through lymph and blood circulation, seriously affecting the patient's quality of life and life span. The cause of cervical cancer is not clear. It is generally believed to be related to long-term infection with high-risk HPV. It takes at least 10 years from viral infection to cancer.

Suggested actions

For patients with cervical cancer in the middle and late stages, surgery is of little significance, and the patients have weak constitutions and are intolerant to surgery. Radiotherapy is a physical therapy method that can be applied to all stages and reduces the pain of treatment. In order to reduce the spread of cancer cells, chemotherapy may be needed, but it has great side effects on the body, so patients should strengthen nutrition and exercise.
