Pay attention to sexual health, vaginal cells regular Pap smears, aggressive treatment of cervical erosion, dysplasia. There are irregular vaginal bleeding, contact Leucorrhea abnormal bleeding and should be identified as early as possible due to a suspicious lesions should be scraping plates or living tissues of the seizure. Cervical cancer patients after treatment should conduct regular checks vaginal cells smears and clinical examination. Cervical cancer patients after radiotherapy, such as hematochezia occurred, should go to the hospital treatment, such as radiation response of the rectum should be a combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine treatment, Xiaochaihu Tang on 50% of the patients had good results.

Five causes of cervical cancer.

1. Dirty sex life

     The unmarried woman as hymen barrier protective effect vagina probiotics environment of the balance, even though there are germs invasion, but also difficult to stir up trouble, so rare cervical erosion. Once the sexual life, the vagina in a relatively “open” state. When penile sex life have direct contact with the cervix, if men do not pay attention to sexual health, the bacteria can be directly into the vagina, cervix infection; Cervical erosion of having a female, may add to its cervical inflammation, expanding erosion surface, serious bleeding may occur in sexual life, cervical Erosion - male blame. Therefore, in the life of the former must convince the male genitalia cleansing.

     2. Several abortion

     More importantly, repeated abortions can cause varying degrees of cervical injury to the bacteria an opportunity and trigger cervicitis. Because inflammatory stimulus, local secretions increase in long-term immersion in inflammatory cervical secretions caused erosion will be. Showtime is a typical example. Women of childbearing age must therefore make contraception, to avoid repeated abortions, and prevent the occurrence of cervical erosion. Marvelon and is a reliable, safe, modern oral contraceptives, pregnancy can be avoided, particularly applies to unmarried or infertile women.

     While mild cervical erosion often no clinical symptoms, some patients, there will be increased Leucorrhea, Leucorrhea for white or yellow purulent mucus, and sometimes have bloody Leucorrhea contact or cervical bleeding, generally does not affect fertility, female friends should not be worried.

     3. Excessive clean

    Some women are particular about health, but lacks the necessary knowledge, often with larger concentrations of disinfection liquid rinse vagina, the result backfired. Because doing so would not only affect the normal vaginal flora growth to decline in the role of inhibiting bacteria can also cause varying degrees of cervical epithelial injury, culminating in erosion. So cleansing perineum is the right way: Cleaning genital appropriate, unless it is absolutely necessary not to wash the vagina, and safeguarding the natural female reproductive tract line of defense, does not destroy the ecological balance in the vagina, not bacteria stir up trouble.

     4. Menstrual sustained too long

     Studies have shown that cervical erosion and the menstrual cycle and the number of days on continued: ≤ 20 day menstrual cycle, the prevalence rate of 81.80%, ≥ 20 days, the prevalence rate ≤ 43.81%; ≤ days of menstruation sustained two days, only 33.33% prevalence rate, were ≥ 8 days prevalence rate of 83.33%. Therefore, cycle was too short, the long duration of the women in the possibility of cervical erosion will increase. Through the extended cycle, reduce menstrual periods to reduce the incidence of erosion.

     5. Multiple sexual partners, sex life too much intensity (more than four times per week), menstrual sex life, also should not be overlooked in cervical erosion causes.

     To sum up, stress of life health, to avoid repeated abortions, and correct cleaning genital adjust the menstrual cycle and eliminate extramarital sex life is far from the fundamental cervical erosion.

According to surgical staging, patient’s age, general condition, equipment conditions, the level of medical technology and treatment measures.

1. Surgical treatment (1) Early indications for surgical patients without serious complications, no surgery taboo disease, the open-age, obesity surgery patients under anesthesia experience and conditions. 2. Surgery of IA1 period hysterectomy, should be retained normal ovarian, cervical cone or resection. IA2 - IIB period extensive hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy, indiscriminate noisy normal should be retained.

2. Radiotherapy 1. Indications IIB late III / IV patients, the surgery can not be tolerated.

3. Surgery and radiotherapy in the treatment of cervical greater use of preoperative radiotherapy will be shrinking tumors in surgery.

4, or chemotherapy for advanced patients with recurrence and metastasis, or surgery and radiotherapy as an adjuvant therapy for the treatment of partial larger mass, cisplatin better efficacy, generally use combined with chemotherapy.

(1) tumor marker 1. Cervical cancer-associated antigen (TA-4) and squamous cell carcinoma-related surprise move (SCC) were determined by radioimmunoassay in patients with serum value of TA-4, found 61% of the patients with positive TA-4, level 5 μ g / L or more. SCC is the ADB TA-4 composition is the special marker of cervical squamous cell carcinoma. Early cervical cancer TA-4 had no significant increase in SCC can be used to predict the therapeutic effect in patients with cervical cancer, and whether or not relapse. 2. Serum tumor associated antigen (CA-125) in patients with cervical cancer serum CA-125 can be increased. Simultaneous determination of patients with SCC and CA-125; Rose found SCC, squamous cell carcinoma of 67%, adenocarcinoma of 2.5 per 1,000; CA-125 increase, squamous cell carcinoma was 26%, 75% adenocarcinoma. Therefore CA-125 can be used as a sign of cervical cancer. 3. Urine promote clips of gonadotropin (UGF) not normal mmmol / L below, the positive rate in patients with early stage cervical cancer was 26%, the positive rate for advanced 67%. UGF during treatment of patients with SCC and dynamic observation can be used as a sign the disease. 4. Antigen (CEA) in patients with gynecologic malignancies in the 60% positive results (≥ 5 μ g / L), which is 38% of cervical carcinoma in situ and invasive cervical cancer was 57%. CEA values and tumor a certain period of the disease, which can also be observed effect of surgery and chemotherapy. If surgery thorough, within two weeks after that to CEA negative, such as surgery are not thoroughly or relapse, or continuing high level of CEA increased; If effective chemotherapy, CEA quickly dropped to normal, but the contrary do not change or increase.

(2), gynecological examinations in addition to the general requirements such as gynecological examinations genital examination, see overcast with a check and double check attendance, attendance needs to be done triple check. Check pelvic examination to be taken when the latter part of the situation and pelvis.

(C), pathological examinations. Colposcopy exfoliated cells smears check for cervical cancer early diagnosis positive rate was about 90%. To enhance the positive rate, cervical cancer should be a good site, with squamous cell at the junction of epithelial-like scraper smears, older women scales, column skin junction to the extension of the neck when the shift, in addition to the Department of admission from cervicovaginal smear, we must also take the smear from the cervix, so as to avoid misdiagnosis. Application of scratching film cervical small sole or small tongue scraper is. Jiang abnormal vaginal non-exfoliated cells from abnormal cervical cancer are many reasons why, in addition to various parts of female genital cancer, vaginal inflammation also can cause all kinds. So, if the abnormal cells found smears should be for further checks. 2. Cervical living tissues of the scraping of the cervix and cervical biopsy is check with cervical biopsy forceps from the cervix from organizations sent folder on the pathological examination, the diagnosis of cervical cancer is the most reliable method. In the above inspection results can be positive or Ying cases or cervical cancer and cervical lesions difficult to identify, should be for cervical biopsy.

(4) iodine test will be made from the iodine solution in cervical smear and vaginal mucosa, Iodine staining observed the situation. Positive staining for those not in the biopsy site. When cervical smear abnormalities or clinical cells can be no Ying cancer and colposcopy, using iodine can be found abnormal test site. The iodine solution used there are two types of First Schiller solution, and the other is Lugol solution, the solution concentration is 10 times more than the former, dyeing fast.

(5) fluorescence inspection luciferase on tumor Tomochika and the role of patients to oral or intravenous injection, the tumor tissues absorb more than the normal tissue can often conduct such early diagnosis of cervical cancer. 1. UV fluorescence excitation of oral examination showed normal cervical purple, purple cervical erosion showed brown, cancer or precancerous lesions showed yellow (positive). 2. Helium - Cd laser fluorescence spectrometry cervical cancer and cervicitis spectral curve shape of the difference between its peak wavelength, half-width and area ratio is different. Early diagnosis rate of about 90%.

Treatment of cervical erosion mainly to local medication. If cervical erosion lighter or inflammation junior, should adopt the local drug therapy, such as the local film Application or chemical sunscreen, and get better results. Due to the need for local drug treatment several times, the course of treatment is longer, and the medical staff to be completed, the patient is often difficult to adhere to, thus affecting efficacy. Currently, a clinical physical therapy is commonly used, such as Perm, laser, freezers, microwave and infrared therapy. Physical therapy has two advantages: First, the shortest course, the general treatment only once, superficial lesions three to four weeks to be cured, deep lesions 6 to 8 weeks also incurable. Second, the effect of better, a cure rate of 70% to 100%.
In general, the cure rate is very high cervical erosion, especially after physical therapy higher cure rate, it is not easy recurrence. According to statistics, the relapse rate was only 0. 4% ~ 0. 5%. However, the total number of patients with several yet to recover after treatment, or cure recurring after, the patient was very distressed. So, what was the cause cervical erosion recurring? The following factors may be relevant.

1. Getting on in age: According to statistics, women under the age of 30, cervical erosion of the lower relapse rate; Women over 30 years of age, a higher recurrence rate.

2. Lesions heavier: the greater the area of cervical erosion, the higher recurrence rate. Mild and moderate cervical erosion of women, the higher the cure rate, and low recurrence rate; Severe cervical erosion of women, low cure rate, but then increased recurrence rate.

3. The treatment is not completely: laser, Perm or microwave, and other physical therapy, if the treatment is too superficial or too limited, the erosion has not been completely destroy the lesions, resulting lesions residues, can cause recurrence.

4. Repeated abortion: abortion, cervical injury. If repeated abortions, then repeatedly damaged cervix, cervical erosion caused This is one of the reasons for relapse.

5. Suffering from sexually transmitted diseases: My STD patients increasing year by year, such as gonorrhea, genital chlamydia infection, such as condyloma acuminata. These pathogens can be invasive cervical epithelial cells, cause cervical inflammation, leading to cervical erosion.

6. Partial immunity anomaly: Some people think, each of the partner’s sperm and intercourse into bacteria, will play a role of a specific immune violations. Cervical local immune response capacity, with the increase in the number of sexual partners from direct proportion to increase. In other words, there are too many extramarital sex or sexual partners of women, cervical erosion will be to relapse.

Clearly, in order to reduce the recurrence of cervical erosion, in addition to actively cooperate with the doctors do regular inspection, a thorough treatment, we must also avoid repeated abortions, extramarital sex and the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases.

A single chemotherapy drugs: the current clinical application of a single chemotherapy drugs are rare. This method mainly used for chemotherapy early or preventive chemotherapy. For cervical cancer more effective drugs cyclophosphamide, 5-fluorouracil, bleomycin and mitomycin C, doxorubicin, methotrexate, cisplatin, the hospitals reported mixed effect, the response rates in the 6% to 25%. In various chemotherapy drugs, cisplatin in the treatment of cervical cancer is the most widely and more effective drugs, it has chemotherapy drugs and radiation sensitizer the dual role of cervical cancer remission rate of about 25%. The joint use of chemotherapy drugs can improve remission rate, such as a single application of the remission rate cisplatin is less than 30%, and when combined up to 60%. In recent years, Thailand has been the application of concern, such as the application of Thai and foreign experts in the treatment of 32 patients with advanced cervical cancer recurrence and, with a total response rate of 25%.

     Joint drug chemotherapy: current advanced cancer or recurrent cancer with surgery, radiotherapy and use, the use of combined chemotherapy drugs, a single chemotherapy drugs have a better effect. In combination, we should be mindful five principles. First, the combination of drugs in a single medication to be effective; The second is to use different mechanisms of anti-tumor drugs; Third, no cumulative toxicity; Fourth, the dose of each drug may be used to be close to the effective dose; 5, the combination of drugs can not be reduced between Validity and antagonistic role. At present, the application of joint drug chemotherapy in the treatment of cervical cancer is efficient, the hospitals reported results for the other, efficiency from 32% to 89% range.

1. Typical early symptoms of cervical cancer, cervical condyloma easily misdiagnosed as cervical erosion ﹑ ﹑ cervical tuberculosis ﹑ submucosal uterine fibroids and cervical polyps, and so on, should attract the attention of doctors.
2. Early cervical cancer surgery is an important treatment option, suitable for 0 - a Phase II patients, II b above radiotherapy treatment is an important one.
3. The majority of cervical cancer is a squamous cell carcinoma, is not sensitive to chemotherapy, the effect is not ideal.
4. Cervical cancer is a systemic disease partial performance, should strictly control chemotherapy indications, and prevent excessive chemotherapy, and efficient low toxicity of anticancer drug activity in recent years is to promote the effective treatment.
5. And compared with other tumors, most patients with a better prognosis of cervical cancer, some patients with life-long cure, early cervical cancer five-year survival rate of patients with about 100%, even after a recurrence after radiotherapy, or even pelvic violations, such as lung ﹑ bone metastases in advanced symptoms, the scientific and effective treatment, the some patients receive better treatment.
6. After spent the first three years after patients easier access to long-term survival.
7. Impact of cervical cancer prognosis number of factors, including the clinical stage ﹑ lymph node metastasis ﹑ mesenchymal morphology reaction ﹑ histological types of pathological grade ﹑ ﹑ age ﹑ a valid complications, and many other factors.
8. Early detection ﹑ comprehensive treatment ﹑ specific systemic anticancer drug ﹑ ﹑ individualized treatment is the basic principle of the treatment of cervical cancer, effects of long-term effect is the main factor.
9. In patients with cervical cancer every two months to do a gynecological examinations ﹑ abdominal ultrasonography ﹑ chest film, and so, if urine abnormalities ﹑ lower abdominal discomfort or expectoration blood ﹑ symptoms should promptly contact with the competent doctors.
10. Postoperative patients after radiotherapy or perineal hygiene should be maintained to prevent infection.

Combination chemotherapy treatment of ovarian cancer is the preferred way.

New York University, said Dr. Franco Muggia, two chemotherapy drugs - Taxol and cisplatin combination in the treatment of advanced ovarian cancer with high-dose use in one of the same drug, but almost no serious side effects. A separate study found that the use of cisplatin combined with the use of drugs has the same effect, but the use of high-dose cisplatin, in patients with difficult to bear. More than 80% of patients with advanced ovarian cancer are able to complete six cycles of combined chemotherapy. Only 69% of the use of high-dose cisplatin for the treatment of patients and 71% of the high dose of Taxol patients to complete six treatment. To the best of cisplatin therapy. Conversely, 67% of the acceptance or the combined treatment of cisplatin patients reaction, only 42% of patients treated with Taxol acceptable reaction. In addition, receiving cisplatin containing an arbitrary treatment of patients with complete remission of their cancer risk is the only acceptable paclitaxel in the treatment of patients twice. Accept cisplatin in the treatment of patients with lower mortality rates. Compared to treatment with cisplatin, paclitaxel-treated patients received an average mortality rate higher than 15%, compared with its low of 1%. Compared with combined chemotherapy, cisplatin and paclitaxel in the treatment of notable side effects. Easy to cisplatin in the treatment of gastrointestinal, kidney and nerve disease prone Bose paclitaxel in the treatment of low leukocyte index and fever. Compared with paclitaxel, cisplatin or cisplatin in combination with other drugs efficacy better. In the three treatment methods are similar in overall survival. Because of the toxicity of chemotherapy with smaller, the combined treatment is the treatment of choice program.

 Pressure can stimulate the growth of ovarian cancer cells, or even accelerating cell proliferation rate, prolonged pressure of women suffering from ovarian cancer more easily.
  Scientists say they have discovered chronic stress and the relationship between the growth of cancer. The results showed that, by the pressure of the stress hormones produced by ovarian cancer cells with a mechanism to receive bonding, then the increase of new cancer cells, cancer cells from the patient’s accelerated growth nutrient absorption, continue to spread in the body. Therefore, once women living under pressure more prone to ovarian cancer.

Disseminated and metastasis
1. Transfer of malignant ovarian tumor growth and metastasis, and other parts of the same direct spread of cancer, and the lymphatic and blood way. But the transfer spread mainly by direct more directly transferred to pots, abdominal organs and organizations, or transfer of Tai omentum, mesenteric, in a number of intraperitoneal nodular mass, a certain degree of mobility; Peritoneal or transferred to the pelvic floor in the vaginal fornix after palpation, palpable in the womb may have rectal Waterloo a papillary protrusions, or pelvic organ penetration, a sinus, and the rectum,; a vaginal or urethral cancer tissue from the pus and bleeding. Ovarian cancer found in the lymph node metastasis rate as high as 50%, or even transferred to the left supraclavicular lymph nodes, or perineum, is in the diagnosis and treatment of ovarian cancer, attention.
2. Common vicious invasion on the side of the fixed pelvic advanced malignant ovarian tumors, resulting in partial perivascular infiltration oppression, to the side of lower extremity venous disruption, edema formation. If the intestine of oppression by the vicious invasion, caused obstruction symptoms; Ureteral pressure, often hydronephrosis
