Women's Cancer - A rising concern
Gynecological cancers along with Breast cancer account for more than 50% of cancers that are found in women.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. One in 29 women is at risk for breast cancer. Breast cancer is completely curable if diagnosed and treated early.
Gynecological cancers are cancers of the female reproductive system.
They include cancer of the cervix, ovary, uterus (womb), fallopian tube, vulva, and vagina. Signs and symptoms of these cancers are often vague and hence are neglected. As a result, most of these cancers (>70%) are detected in advanced stages.
Some cancers can be prevented by healthy lifestyles, vaccination, and detecting them in the precancerous stage. Cancer can be better treated and cured if detected early. Screening for these common cancers helps in early detection.
