Fat Women Having Risky Ovary Cancer
Women need to weight, because weight is too much to keep the risk of ovarian cancer (ovarian cancer) is higher compared with women who are not (overweight), obese.
Ovarian cancer is the commonest cause of death for all gynecologic cancers. Difficult cancers early treatment, because the former tend to occur almost without symptoms. However, there are certain symptoms that should be suspected of ovarian cancer.
In the early stages, problems with menstrual disturbances form. But in contrast to cancer can be detected with a Pap test method, there is no way to detect ovarian cancer.
So far, known for certain causes of ovarian cancer. However, the factors may cause the excessive use of drugs suspected ovarian cancer.
In addition, the use of infertility drugs long-term disadvantages are assumed
increase the risk of disease. Genetic factors may also be a reference, because although 10 percent of patients in a family that also have suffered in ovarian cancer.
However, a study in the United States of America (USA) links obesity increases the risk of ovarian cancer.
The trial involved over 94,000 women from 51 to 71, followed by more than seven years. The results of the study, quoted by Reuters, showed that obese women have a higher probability of ovarian cancer.
Risk was in women who have never been on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) increases at menopause. The earlier studies linking hormone that is used to reduce the risk of ovarian cancer.
Among women who are overweight, those who never HRT cancer risk by 83 percent ovairum higher than women of normal weight.
The discovery was published in the journal Cancer, also shows that obesity is a risk factor for ovarian cancer can be controlled.
According to the study’s principal investigator, Dr. Michael Leitzman L National Cancer Institute in the United States of America (USA) in Bethesda, Maryland and the University of Regensburg in Germany, results. Study offers another reason for women to avoid weight gain is not healthy.
“Our data suggest that maintaining a healthy weight with a reduced risk of ovarian cancer associated” says Leitzmann.
Can not understand why childhood obesity has contributed to ovarian cancer, but may be related to the effects of excess body fat to levels of estrogen in the body of a woman, “says Leitzmann and partners.
The fact that the risk of ovarian cancer support the use of HRT in relation to this theory.
The study also found a link between obesity at age 18 and an increased risk of ovarian cancer in the elderly? – An association was even stronger than the correlation between the age of obesity and ovarian cancer.
Weight at puberty may be more relevant to ovarian cancer more than the weight of age.
Other studies conducted by scientists from the United States have also shown that women who are overweight, prone to ovarian cancer.
Obesity increases the risk of certain cancers, but research has shown that fat tissue affects tumor development.
According to the journal Cancer, fat cells produce hormones and proteins released research for ovarian cancer faster.
Lead researcher Dr Andrew Li said the study involved 216 women with epithelial ovarian cancer, ovarian cancer is more common, about 90 percent of all cases.
The study compared 35 women who are with the 108 women who are normal weight to see significant differences in cancer development were obese.
Obviously, obesity affects the body’s resistance. Those who are obese, cancer cells can occur after treatment, and again the risk of death.
In order to identify ovarian cancer, American Cancer Society announced the results of an expert consensus on the symptoms of ovarian cancer. Symptoms include inflammation in the body, pain in the abdomen and pelvis, loss of appetite, frequent urination and pain during intercourse.
Frequent urination occurs when the tumor is pressing if the rectum or bladder. , Emphasis may also occur in the stretch or cause pain in the pelvic area.
Dharma’s Hospital site of these symptoms in advanced cancer with ascites (accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity) on the network (belly fat) and organs in the abdomen as the intestine and the liver is. Symptoms such as bloating, swelling, nausea, anorexia, irritable bowel and urination.
If you have these symptoms, the patient should consult a doctor immediately for further tests to detect ovarian cysts or enlargement.
