1. Cervical Cancer: Typically a very slow-growing cancer, cervical cancer
is most often detected in its pre-cancerous stage called cervical
dysplasia during a routine pap smear. Since dysplasia cells can take as
long as twenty years to become full-blown cancer, it is generally caught
in more than enough time to treat it successfully.
2. Endometrial Carcinoma: The least deadly of the female cancers,
endometrial carcinoma accounts for nearly 13 percent of cancers
among women. The moist common sign of this type of cancer is mid-
cycle bleeding, especially in women over the age of 35. Those at
greatest risk of endometrial cancer include women who are: obese;
never had children; experience irregular periods; have higher than
normal levels of estrogen in their bodies; early onset of menstruation;
high blood pressure and diabetes.
3. Ovarian Cancer: A very deadly cancer, ovarian cancer is most insidious
for two reasons: there really is no way to routinely test for it; and since
the ovaries are buried deep within the abdominal cavity, changes in
them can be hard to detect early. Although there is a blood test that
can be performed to help detect changes that could indicate cancer,
fibroids can also cause C-125 levels to rise, making it a very unreliable
way to test to ovarian cancer. Although hysterectomies are often
performed to prevent ovarian cancer in high-risk women (and to help
treat it), even that may not be enough since single cancer cells often
leach form the ovaries, settling in the pelvis and bone where it can
continue to grow at a later date.
