What You Should Know – Cervical Cancer Prognosis
Your cervical cancer prognosis depends on various things. You may be feeling pretty powerless right now and concerned for your future. You can get yourself informed and take control of your treatment and your prognosis.
Chemotherapy, surgery, hormone therapy and radiotherapy are not the only available treatments for ovarian cancer. Your oncologist will likely not know much about them for a few reasons.
There are five common types of ovarian cysts. There are the functional cysts which are grouped into the Follicle cyst and the corpus luteum cysts. Both of these functional cysts are the result of the normal functions of the ovary. Treatment for this type includes the method they call ‘watch and wait’. The doctor usually advises the patient to come for a regular check up as the cysts inside the ovary are under observation. If however, the cysts start to grow to about two inches in diameter, a surgery called laparoscopy is employed in order to remove the cyst. As prevention still proves to be better than any known treatment for ovarian cysts, the physician generally recommends the use of birth control pills to decrease the risk of having further appearance of ovarian cysts.
Polycystic ovaries come about when the follicular sacs are no longer being ripped apart to release the eggs. The most popular sign of this type is that of infertility, and if the woman is trying to have her own child doctors generally recommend drug therapy which would induce ovulation, and if by any chance the patient prefers to stay childless and is having irregular periods a drug that restores normal menstrual flow are most commonly advised to be taken.
Pap smears are the only established method for cervical cancer screening. This test involves brushing cells off the surface of the cervix and examining the cells under a microscope for the presence of cancerous or precancerous changes or lesions. Presently, Pap smear is a routine test for women in most developed countries and this has really helped to reduce the number of deaths that are recorded due to cervical cancer. However, some critics have argued that the Pap smear test is not always completely accurate. It is advisable to carry out the test in at least two laboratories, seek at least two professional opinions and then compare, especially if you observe early symptoms of cervical cancer or you believe you are perfectly alright but the test result shows otherwise.
Cancer patients owe it to themselves and their families to explore all the treatment options. Thousands of people have overcome cancer without subjecting themselves to toxic and often ineffective treatments. They just don’t have the advertising budget to tell everyone. Instead, their stories are on the Internet, posted by both survivors and their practitioners. You can make up your own mind about your treatment without handing over your future to someone else
