Endometrial cancer is a very serious and harmful disease of the uterus. The impact of this disease on the patient's health and life is endless. Therefore, knowing more about endometrial cancer can help us effectively prevent endometrial cancer. The following will introduce to us the main manifestations of endometrial cancer. 1. Polycystic ovary, recurrent ovarian virilization tumors, anovulation, excessive endometrial hyperplasia, and long-term use of estrogen after menopause can all cause the endometrium to develop into cancer due to the stimulation of estrogen alone. Singles or married women who have never given birth, as well as obesity, hypertension, diabetes, or abnormal glucose tolerance test, arteriosclerotic heart disease, etc. are all prone to endometrial cancer. In addition, endometrial cancer is related to genetic inheritance. Endometrial cancer symptoms 2. Pain: In the late stage, when the cancer tumor invades the peripheral tissues or presses on the nerves, pain will appear in the lower limbs and lumbar sacral region, and radiate to the lower limbs. When cancerous tumors invade the cervix and block the cervical canal, causing pyometra, the symptoms are swelling and pain in the lower abdomen and muscle spasm-like pain. 3. Patients with a small amount of vaginal discharge report excessive leucorrhea, which is serous or serous-bloody in the early stage, and purulent or thick bloody discharge with a foul odor when combined with infection in the late stage. Endometrial cancer symptoms 4. Vaginal bleeding is manifested as irregular vaginal bleeding, the amount of which is generally small. It can also be reflected as increased menstrual flow, a longer menstrual period, or intermenstrual bleeding. Postmenopausal patients report recurrent or intermittent bleeding. 4. Other advanced tumors may cause edema and pain in the lower limbs due to the compression of iliac blood vessels by the disease; the disease may cause water retention in the renal pelvis and urethra in the same direction, and even lead to renal atrophy; recurrent bleeding may lead to secondary anemia; long-term tumor consumption may lead to systemic degenerative reactions such as weight loss, fever, and cachexia. |
