Cancer In Indian Women Still A Taboo
Women related cancers still remain a taboo in our country and that has become a major hurdle in their early detection and effective treatment. Due to the over whelming sense of shame associated with them, they are mostly diagnosed at an advanced stage.
There are mainly 4 female associated cancers; breast cancer, ovarian cancer, cervix cancer and uterus cancer. There are effective screening methods available for breast cancer (self-breast examination and mammography) and cervix cancer (Pap smear and HPV viral testing) but ovary and uterus cancers do not have such methods, usually present with non specific symptoms at late stages like abdominal pain, bloating, persistent nausea, difficulty passing urine.
