Initial Treatment For Cervical Cancer
If you have recently been diagnosed with cervical cancer, you may experience a wide variety of emotions in reaction to your diagnosis. Most women will feel some denial, anger, and grief. Talking with other women who have had similar feelings after a diagnosis such as yours can help you accept and deal with your disease.
There is no “normal” or “right” way to react to a diagnosis of cancer. You can take steps, though, to manage your emotional reactions to learning that you have cervical cancer. Some women find that talking with family and friends is comforting, while others may need to spend time alone to understand their feelings about their disease.
If your emotions are interfering with your ability to make decisions about your health and to move forward with your life, it is important to talk with your doctor. Your cancer treatment center may offer counseling services. The choice of treatment and the long-term outcome of cervical cancer depends on the type and stage of cancer. Your age, overall health, quality of life, and desire to be able to have children must also be considered.
Treatment choices for cervical cancer may be a single therapy or a combination of therapies, such as: cone bispsy to remove the cancer; simple hysterectomy to remove the uterus and cervix; modified radical hysterectomy and lymph node dissection to remove the cancer; radiation therapy; chemotherapy; radical trachelectomy to remove the cervix and the pelvic lymph nodes.
Chemotherapy may be given at the same time as radiation therapy. It improves survival rates in stages IIB, IIIA, IIIB, and IVA cervical cancer without significantly increasing the side effects of either treatment. It may also improve survival rates in stages IB and IIA for women with large tumors. Compared with radiation alone, it improves survival and is usually used as the primary therapy or after a hysterectomy.
Microinvasive squamous cell carcinoma ( stage IA1) with minimal invasion into deeper cell layers is the most treatable stage with the highest survival rates. This stage is treated with a cone biopsy or loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) or simple hysterectomy. Five-year survival rates are close to 100%. Your doctor can talk to you about your treatment choices and the side effects associated with each treatment.
Most treatments for cervical cancer cause side effects. Side effects may differ, depending on the type of treatment used and your age and overall health. Side effects of chemotherapy may include loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, mouth sores, or hair loss. Side effects of radiation therapy may include fatigue, skin irritation, or changes in your bowel or urinary habits. Side effects of surgery depend on the surgery used to treat the stage of your cancer.
Both cervical cancer and genital warts are caused by a highly contagious virus known as HPV. Out of about 200 types of HPV identified to date, more than 30 have the ability to infect the genital tract. However, HPV types 6 and 11 are responsible for approximately 90% of all genital warts, and thus are the primary targets for HPV cures.
These warts are highly contagious and spread through intimate skin-to-skin contact with an infected partner. Thus, they have become very prevalent in the general population and often require an immediate HPV cure. They can occur virtually anywhere on the body. If afflicted with warts, it becomes necessary to eradicate the HPV infection to eliminate them.
HPVCurative contains certified organic antiviral extracts, which have the demonstrated ability not only to act as HPV cures, but also to stimulate CD4 T-cells, which cleanse virus-infected cells. HPVCurative thereby eradicates genital warts without any recurrence, making it superior to other genital warts cures.
HPVCurative is so effective among available HPV cures because it not only contains only the most potent certified organic antiviral medicinal plant extracts, but is highly tolerable to genital tissue as well. CURED use plant extracts for their genital warts cures that are produced in very limited quantities, and are not available in the commercial market due to scarcity.
Alkaloids exhibiting a broad spectrum of antiviral activity have been identified in a select few herbal extracts, which have been blended into all of our HPV cures. These antiviral alkaloids can penetrate into human tissue, and are known to be highly effective in genital warts cures. To learn more, please go to http://www.bcured.net.
