Posted to female oncology ward for these two weeks and all I can say is cancer is cruel but amidst that pain and sorrow, you can really see true love in that ward
#saying this in light of one of my group's fav patient that passed away after my shift last morning#shes in her early 30s and was a teacher and was diagnosed with breast cancer that metastases to lung and cervical lymph nodes#she was weak since she was admitted last week and usually just sleep but shes so nice every time we administered medication to her#or even when we check her vital signs despite how tired she was#her husband is a teacher too and as of late hes there every day as her condition deteriorated#apparently she wanted to undergo chemotherapy but her first cycle led to some severe side effects so her doctor doesn't allowed it#when we read the case note before clocking out the shift yesterday theres a psychiatrist entry so yeah#her husband was just caressing her hands as she slept yesterday and he looks obviously pained when my friend asked what had she eaten#because we need to fill the intake output chart and yeah she was unable to eat much anyway#it was very sad to see her husband wiping his tears silently by her bedside#and then we came to the ward this morning to find out she had passed away and there was a discharge note on her case note#apparently she supposedly will be discharged today so that she will be able to go at home#turned out she left first..#it rained the whole morning today and it kind of summarizes the mood of our group members this morning#it was sad obviously but when i think about it you can really see how much her husband really cared for her until the end#i hope he will be able to heal and that may her soul rest in peace#personal.txt

Cervical Cancer: Early Detection and Warning Signs
Cervical cancer is a significant health concern for women worldwide. It is the fourth most common cancer among women in the United States, with approximately 13,000 new cases diagnosed and 4,000 deaths reported each year. However, the good news is that cervical cancer is highly preventable and treatable, thanks to advancements in screening guidelines and the availability of the human…

Health Check Ups List
You need to take care of your health, no matter what. It’s always better to spend a little right now to prevent bigger (and more expensive) issues later on. A rule my mother always taught me - if anything irritates/ you can feel pain/ something feels off with your ENT (Ears, Nose, Throat), get it checked out immediately.
In 2023, focus on your health. If you aren’t healthy, it will start affecting the other parts of your life - your career, personal life, social life- in the forms of stress, exhaustion, burn outs, etc.
If your periods are irregular or the bleeding isn’t consistent, visit your gyno immediately, it could be PCOS/PCOD. Always track your periods for this purpose.
Some other tests:
1. Pap and Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) tests- It is recommended to take a Pap and HPV screening between the age of 20 to 30 years to identify signs of cervical cancer and HPV virus at an early stage. Women aged between 21 and 29 should have a Pap test every three years and for women aged 25 to 29, HPV testing alone can be considered, although Pap tests are preferred.
2. Eye exam- From the age of 18 years, it is advised to get regular screening done.
3. Sexually transmitted diseases (STD)- One of the disadvantages of STD is that it shows no proper symptoms at an early stage. If a person is suffering from it, STD can be transmitted and passed on to your child and partner. Hence, it is advised to get regular screening done if a woman is sexually active.
4. Get your skin checked - At the age of 18, get your skin checked for abnormal moles or color changes on a monthly basis, especially if you're fair-skinned or frequently exposed to the sun.
5. Cholesterol - a risk factor for heart issues. Conduct your first test after the age of 20.
6. Breast cancer examination - once every 3 years after you hit your 20s.
7. Vitamin deficiency tests
8. Food allergy tests

Angelina Jolie and Billy Bob Thornton
Forget Megan Fox for a minute, and her partner Machine Gun Kelly a.k.a. Colson Baker these two are the original crazy couple. They were known for coming to Premier high off their not on stuff mainly heroin and never jokes according to the blind I am to the love of each other lives forever and when are you looking in there in their synastry you can see why.. so what was it about? These two? That made them so appealing to the general public? I’ll tell you what they were different. They appealed to the weird kids. They appealed to their and popular kids, they even appeared to the popular kids and people who didn’t know how to express the side of themselves from a very young age Angelina had a very let’s say unconventional sex life for someone very young, her mum even allowed her to have her different boyfriend stay in the house and it’s so believe that she went out of one of her mother’s partners. I don’t know how true this is but I’ve had it a couple of times.
Angelina loves her mother, unfortunately she lost her mother to cancer which gave Angelina the ideas to get tested for all the things that her mother had and she had her breast removed and she had the test for like cervical things and she had a very high chance of getting what her mother had, John VOIGHT, who is Angelina‘s father? Have a very strange relationship. They work together on a film. I believe it might have been too raid or films she did after it and they worked together fine on Saturday and bloody bloody blah blah criticism like a lot of Angelina life you can see that she’s been really criticised by those places that even the general private making fun of her for adopting babies from other countries which in the early 2000 seem to be a massive thing with her and Madonna, I’m not sure maybe because they were older but Angelina isn’t that old I feel like she just wanted to help children from other countries. He didn’t get the chance to have a mother around that subject for another day.
I think the thing that makes her different between her and Megan Fox is the fact that Angelina was doing this before. This was even a thing she invented the whole being different and a bit crazy and kind of like when the rider but we have more of an edge , in fact, character girl interrupted reminds me of what Angelina could actually be like in real life especially being a Gemini 🌞 sun.
Carrying each of his role of blood around each one and others necks with a thing with these two also this is where I believe things went down for Angelina after Billy Bob but like I said if you want to believe the bond these who have been hooking up and secret for many years , and after they broke up and said having sex with her like having sex with sofa , very bitter and mean .
So now let’s get into the ministry of these two birth chalk and add a little spice to what’s going on here…..
His son is Leo. Her sun is in Gemini. Her moon is an Aries with a cancer rising making her moon the chart ruler she was born on June 4, 1975 in Los Angeles at 9:09 am a late cancer ascendant Venus is almost exactly rising in cancer and a tight square with Uranus and Jupiter closed and exactly the same conjunction of the midheaven. She has an Aries moon which is conjunct her Mars and Aries her mercury is in Gemini.
Billy Bob has a number of planets in Leo mercury Venus mars Jupiter and Pluto, although his moon is opposing to Leo being an Aquarius, which has a Scorpio myself is my favourite moon sign?🌙, so although Angelina‘s birth time is accurate, we don’t have one for Billy Bob here we go there Billy Bob has a huge coralstion reaction of planets in Leo with all the personal planets except the moon in Leo with this concentration and he’s going to impact another person in a concentrated area of their charts in the case of Angelina impact on her house. No wonder she couldn’t keep her hands off him you see guys this is how it happens and cussing on that house the second house is in but for her it would be in Leo and the second house being ruled by tourist generally and always let’s take away the factor it’s her chart is to do with the senses adding the part where they said they couldn’t keep their hands up each other, he is almost exactly conjunct her Venus in sin. This aspect is a major indication of attraction the Venus person in this case Angelina is actually unfed with the Uranus person and the begins quickly quickly and this kind of election electric attraction ruling electricity,,,,
The sinner story between the moon is remarkable. Their son is in trying with the moon moonshine mercury many sex ties involving personal planets and more Angeline son moon midpoint at 13 15 is activated by Billy Bob on Mars and Saturn is a two-way mars and Jupiter and the list goes on in an interview with the Rollingstone Angelina has described how she felt when she met Billy Bob it was a feeling of disorientation. It’s no wonder at all.
The couples shed quite a few natal configurations for example Angelina has been escort Uranus aspect as dominant aspect in her chart and bill Bob has Venus conjunct Uranus both attracted to the unconventional exciting relationships both have Mars conjunction Jupiter in fire signs indicating in insatiable appetite, adventure activity and sex.
Then, if you wanna go a little bit deeper, you can look at composite charts, Which is a different way it’s not like sin is how the relationship has viewed in the public how the relationship views and different parts of an aspect of the relationship rather than the compatibility and say this composite chart however has some serious clashes are most obvious in the composite chart chart reveals the ultimate fate of relationship. Mars conjunction Jupiter and aspect present in their individual charts and these planets are involved in a T square with the moon car on Saturn neon and Pluto the noodle actress is immediately involved with this configuration as well.
Some released from tensions of this configuration is found in mercury which tries the moon and Kairon the Sextile the volatile urine is Saturn and Pluto and Neptune which trying moon Cron and sex tiles Uranus, Saturn and Pluto the three square is volatile in his power and energy with Neptune supporting some of the elements of the free tries and sex ties we would expect that the couple was able to talk things out and come to some acceptance of diverse and extreme energy present in their relationship at least some of the time..
He wrote a song about her….
I can understand him being so attracted to Angelina Jolie who isn’t she has his elected of tea with people even with that woman Jenny she feels things straight away which I give her and her moon and Aries being in the same and being passionate and seeing things through straightaway.
You are a strongly involved of the moon mars and Jupiter might have been easier to handle for the couple has both Angelina and Billy and they to leave configured to handle urinating in relationships, however Saturn tightly can jump glue to opposing and squaring their personal plants is much more challenging to grips with. Even though Venus looks at first glance to be unrespected in the composite chart it Semi Square Mars, Jupiter and Saturn Pluto forms Square to moon Kron Venus is involved and his challenging manner. All of the clashes present in the composite chart certainly worse stimulating and exciting but dementia too demanding.
Let’s go with Angelina having these challenges with Brad Pitt where she was attracted to him straight away and vice versa and both being mutable signs where they can adapt and become basically mirroring the signs, a Sagittarius and her being a in Gemini, here is some more with Brad Pitt people over expecting interest in a relationship between Angelina and Brad astrologically speaking the sinister between the two is for less striking and the example above and not hugely binding especially if Angelina Saturn or Brad North node which is often a separate aspect and his mercury and Mars opposing her Saturn with many of Brad’s personal planets falling in Angelina is six S. there is an imbalance present in the relationship which may over time be draining.
So now I want to take you to the blind item world, and we will look at some Angelina and Bob blind items alright so blind items are about celebrities where they’re a bit play onwards that they can’t say exactly who they are and there sometimes give them nicknames but here is one from September 15, 2019 and remember guys he broke up in the early 2000 supposedly it looks like the Oscar winning actor is getting closer to confirming that what I have been saying for a decade he is still hooked up with the permanent A-list mostly movie actress of his and has done so despite who they might have been involved with over the years, isn’t that right? Sport .
NT lawyer crazy days and loves to say this about Billy Bob calling everybody sport …. she’s been hooking up with for decades supposedly she does her own PR here is another blind item dated April 10, 2012
Number one is Academy award-winning actress who is an A-list apparently still believes in old flames she has slept with her ex-boyfriend a few times in the past year because she just can’t get him out of her head. I wonder what her A-list actor would think of it
Number two this A-list movie actor has a very unusual girlfriend for his first celebrity fling. She was probably B+ this movie actress at the time as it is now a wacky being minus with other interest. Our actor had never met her but told the male producer he could not speak with him to get apart back in the day because he had a girlfriend her was the first one he came up with and had to say with her until the producer finally gave up number one revealed
Angelina Billy Bob and Brad Pitt
Number two Brad Pitt Juliet Lewis
Here on lipstick all over find more Angelina Jolie/Brad Pitt find items reveals July 8, 2016 and remember this is the time they split and things weren’t really sour. They were actual going up to the room of this A+ list mostly movie actor married to another A-list actor I never knew he was a stripper guy. He was always being a sucker for a PR people group Pitt/Angelina Jolie
28th of April 2016 this this mostly movie the actress is in bad shape health what is the drug uses out of control and she is slowly wasting away nothing Angelina Jolie very sad some of these
28th of July 2015 the wedding of his oranges new black address is on hold not for any other reasons giving but she is enjoying all the access with fans that she has been having in the past few months. She managed to hook up with this A+ this may be amazing actress and that is Ruby Rose and Angelina Jolie October 8, 2015 is a mostly movie address who is A-list more for fame than acting at this point has dropped so much weight that our husband has someone with her to make sure she eats at least at some food every day too many fainting spells and emergency goes to the doctor for dehydration. I’ve led to this
I wanna end this on a good note , Angelina has been out of the public eye for a bit. I feel recently and hopefully she is getting some good time with her children and looking after herself we’ve got a member she was very young when she hooked up with Brad Pitt and he was at least 10 years now, he was married and he should’ve known better. We’ve stop blaming things like this. He’s probably told her many lies about him and Jennifer and they probably won’t even together millennials Angelina was a blood sucker but now we love her. I’ve always loved her. She was like I celebrity crushes a woman she’s just so beautiful. I do hope she manages to sort her problems out as that video of her doing heroin and being on the phone to her dealer, which is really worrying she needs to have people around her if she is a good person I just wanted to show you may seem very appealing and the machine gun Megan Fox , Travis Barker and Kourtney k there are many problems too

Why I'm Not Really Posting This Weekend
Tumblr media
I live in a state where the governor has signed into law, to go into effect in 30 days, the outlawing of all abortion except to save the life of the mother - and that even is a very slippery slope for health care workers. Physicians can face life in prison if a missed miscarriage, ectopic blockage, or placental abruption is not considered life-threatening.
Abortion providers in my state closed yesterday and will remain closed. We're in the Handmaid's Tale - the Chaucer version, the Atwood version, the Republican version. I now live in early Gilead. And it was bad enough when it was at six weeks gestation - before many people know they're pregnant. It is outlawed effectively now. Yes, if you're eleven years old - or nine. Yes, if you've been raped. Yes, if it's your dad's baby. There is no recourse for abused children, raped teenagers, or women in violent relationships. Meanwhile, please feel free to carry your guns into our schools and shoot whoever you like, as long as you're not endangering your unborn child's life by doing so. So I'm angry. I'm angry because I am waiting for a radical hysterectomy for significant medical reasons but I was still asked, last week, if there was any possibility of pregnancy before I was allowed necessary medical treatment UNRELATED TO MY SCHEDULED-FOR-REMOVAL UTERUS.
I lied about my last period to avoid having a pregnancy test - not because I was pregnant (literally zero chance) but because I was angry that they didn't believe me when I said that most single people with cervical cancer aren't running out to get laid, thanks.
I'm angry for my daughter who thank GODS lives in a slightly less-restrictive state - but who knows how long that will last. At this rate, I expect her IUD to be illegal by the end of the year, and a pregnancy would likely kill her. I'm angry for every child or teenager or adult who can't say no because of fear. Now they'll be forced to carry if they become pregnant due to abuse.
I'm angry for every person with a uterus who now knows their worth here is less than that of an inanimate firearm.
I'm angry for every person who, like me, wants children but can't easily have them and will have to carry those products of conception that are not viable because doctors won't do the necessary D&Cs to remove them (I've had three of those - and they're coded as "abortions" for reimbursement. There is no difference WHEN THERE DAMN WELL SHOULD BE.)
I'm angry that my government is coming for your right to marry who you love, for your gender identity, for your right to safe birth control even - and where I live the Republicans also want to come for your ability to get a no-fault divorce, your mental health care, and further reduce Medicaid and welfare - not expand them. I'd love to move. Absolutely would in a heartbeat if I had the income and the savings set up to do so. I do not. I can't even pay my own rent right now much less set up an exit plan - and in the end I'm not the person who needs to leave the most. I'll still get my hysterectomy. Abortion or not will no longer be my concern, soon. But many other girls and women WILL need to leave to ensure their safety. I hope they get out as soon as they can. Meanwhile: buy you a vibrator while you can get one. Enjoy it alone or with your favorite person, unless that person has a penis. They want puritanical law? They can have sex with their incel palms, then. If you own a clitoris your orgasm does not depend on a babymaking factor to exist. Funny how a penis-owner's orgasm absolutely, 100% of the time, is the cause of pregnancy but ain't nobody trying to control the men.

Every year, around 3,000 new cases of cervical cancer are reported in the UK. Despite approximately 99.8 per cent of cases being preventable, there are still many misconceptions surrounding cervical cancer. Cervical Screening Awareness Week, an annual campaign led by Jo’s Cervical Cancer Trust, runs from 20 to 26 June 2022. Although cervical cancer can affect anyone with a cervix the term 'women' will be used here for brevity. This article was originally published in 2020.
When the letter arrived through her front door, Marianne Nicholson did not open it. The 43-year-old from Northern Ireland knew what the envelope contained and had already decided that after a previous smear test when the nurse chastised her for bleeding, she wouldn’t be responding to future invitations. Nicholson had tried to explain it wasn’t her period but spotting caused by her contraceptive pill, but the nurse had already terminated the procedure. “She [the nurse] was annoyed and I was really embarrassed. After that I disliked smears so much,” she tells me. 
“I put it off for years, over the three year mark,” Nicholson continues. Then she started bleeding more heavily between periods. “I just assumed it was my pill [again] but it was bright red which is a huge warning sign,” she says. It wasn’t until her best friend at work intervened and said it wasn’t normal to be bleeding so much, forcing her to attend an appointment together. Following the examination Nicholson was diagnosed with cervical cancer. “I never thought for one minute I had cervical cancer. My friend actually saved my life.” 
Nicholson says her naivety (and belief cancer was something that only happened to other people) stopped her from attending an appointment. But she isn’t alone. Eleven years after the death of TV celebrity Jade Goody from cervical cancer in 2009, aged 27 – a high profile case that caused a rise in 500,000 extra people attending cervical screenings and was dubbed the “Jade Goody effect” – attendance has dwindled to a 20-year-low.
The overall decline in numbers may seem small: in 2018-2019 the percentage of women deemed to have been screened adequately was at 71.9 per cent, which fell from 72 per cent in 2017 and 72.7 per cent in 2016. But data released by Cancer Research UK showed rates of cervical cancer have risen sharply. Among 25 to 29-year-olds there has been a 54 per cent rise in cervical cancer rates since 2004.
Athena Lamnisos, CEO of the Eve Appeal, a gynaecological cancer charity, says: “Although last year saw a small increase for the first time in 21 years in attendance for cervical screening appointments, 1 in 4 are still not booking their appointment when called.”
Cervical screening, commonly referred to as a smear test, helps to pick up early signs of cell changes in the cervix that can turn into cancer. The tests are free on the NHS for all people with a cervix between the ages of 25 to 64. At your appointment, a nurse will take a sample of cells from your cervix using a small, soft brush. It should take no longer than 15 minutes. Jo’s Trust, a cervical cancer charity, say early detection and treatment through cervical screening can prevent up to 75 per cent of cervical cancers from developing. So why are so many still shunning the appointments or putting the letters straight in the bin?
Jo Varsani, 39, from Chadwell Heath in Essex didn’t go for a smear test for 18 years after her first one as a teenager because the first experience was so traumatic for her. “It was painful, I was a virgin and I was really anxious,” she says. “I was also very conscious of someone judging me and how I looked.” After her appointment things were made worse as she was told she would need to return for another test as they hadn’t been able to collect a sufficient sample. “I ignored the letters and any subsequent requests for an appointment,” she says.
Varsani, who has two children and one step-child and runs a daycare centre, says that not only did her bad experience stop her from attending the smear test but she found it hard to make the time. “When my daughter was young, I was a single parent and so prioritised making a living over and above my health,” she says. (Now she offers other mothers free childcare for an hour when they need to go for smear tests).
It was only when her mother-in-law died of cancer at the age of 61 that she finally decided to bite the bullet and book a second appointment. “Obviously, I have a 16-year-old daughter so I want her to go and have her own smear test when the time comes, and I can only say to her to do it, if I’ve done it too. In my whole life I’ve only had two smear tests and I’ll be 40 this year.”
Carrie Eddins, 44, from the West Midlands, also had a bad experience at her first appointment which has stopped her from going again. “The cold metal speculum, it was excruciating and not remotely something I ever wanted to repeat. It was extremely painful and I bled because of it, the nurse was not remotely compassionate.” Unlike Varsani, Eddins has not yet come to terms with going back ignoring the stream of letters and texts from her local trust.
Clearly some women have bad personal experiences of smear tests which then informs their decision not to go back, but this isn't the case with everyone. The most highly-cited reason for not scheduling smear tests, referenced by all of the women The Independent spoke to was that of misinformation. The narrative around smear tests continues to be that they are universally a painful and embarrassing experience. This, understandably, puts women off. Nicolson says: “You hear through Chinese whispers that it hurts or is embarrassing and then this filters down through the generations.”
Even women who have already been themselves are susceptible to the myths. Lindsay Davies, 35, from Mansfield, didn’t have a smear test for six years and says she would always make “silly excuses” not to go because things she had heard from friends “terrified” her. She eventually decided to go but gave herself an escape. “I said to myself that if the nurse wasn’t very nice I was going to just leave. But the nurse was lovely and really put me at ease, she even gave me a tissue to cover my face. It took ten minutes and there was no pain.
“Far too many people massively exaggerate the discomfort or how long it takes. Basically every part of the smear test is exaggerated to this scary bad thing and in reality it’s five minutes that could genuinely save your life.” Ms Davies was eventually diagnosed with cervical cancer when she attended at 29 and had to have a hysterectomy to treat it. “I went through hell, the implications of not going for your smear test are far reaching.
Lamnisos from the Eve Appeal agrees that misinformation has persisted. “There is still quite a lot of misinformation and fear out there around both HPV and cervical screening.” She says that there needs to be a better understanding of what is going to happen before women arrive at the appointment. “Cervical screening is not a cancer test, it is a preventative test. This means cervical screening, and if needed, follow up treatment can stop cancer before it starts.”
Misinformation was deemed to be so prevalent in 2019 the government started the first ever nationwide TV campaign in England and Wales to encourage women to attend smear tests. 
Another reason why people may not attend, which has not been addressed by existing campaigns, Lamnisos says is bigger barriers beyond their control. “For example if they are disabled and hoist dependant and there isn’t access to a hoist in the GP, or [if they are] a trans man or non-binary and fall through gaps in the system or are not invited for the screening appointment to start with.
“Another big barrier might be that they are a survivor of sexual abuse or FGM [female genital mutilation] and have other issues around this specific screening test. For these groups of people that face extra personal, physical or psychological hurdles, extra time, information and support can help make the procedure a bit easier and encourage more people to go when they are due.”
Rebecca Shoosmith, head of support at Jo's Trust, agrees: "For some groups of women, including survivors of sexual violence, those with conditions such as vaginismus, and women with a physical disability it can be particularly hard, even impossible."
Whatever the reason for not going doctors want the numbers of women attending to be increasing not dropping. Ms Nicholson says she believes the key to targeting everyone – regardless of their motivations – is to share stories like her own. “Girls need to know what could happen, you could end up like me needing major surgery, chemotherapy, or even worse, dying. They are a vital part of our health and we need to have them done.
“If I had understood how important smears are it would have made me go sooner. We all need to get involved to help bring the message home to young girls and hopefully help eradicate this silent killer.”

What are Sign and Risk Factor of Cervical Cancer ? Which Hospital Cerivcal Cancer Specialist in Delhi?
Cervical cancer is a significant health concern affecting women worldwide. While advancements in medical science have improved our understanding of the disease and its prevention, it remains crucial for women to be aware of the signs and risk factors associated with cervical cancer. Early detection can greatly increase the chances of successful treatment. In this article, we will explore the signs and risk factors of cervical cancer.
Signs of Cervical Cancer
Abnormal Vaginal Bleeding: One of the most common signs of cervical cancer is abnormal vaginal bleeding. This can manifest as bleeding between menstrual periods, after intercourse, or after menopause. Any unexplained vaginal bleeding should be promptly reported to a healthcare provider.
Pelvic Pain: Persistent, unexplained pelvic pain or discomfort can be a sign of cervical cancer. This pain may occur during intercourse or at other times and should not be ignored.
Pain During Intercourse: Pain or discomfort during sexual intercourse, known as dyspareunia, can also be indicative of cervical cancer. It may occur due to the growth of tumors in the cervix.
Unusual Vaginal Discharge: An unusual vaginal discharge that is watery, bloody, or has a foul odor may be a sign of cervical cancer. It is essential to differentiate between normal vaginal discharge and unusual changes.
Painful Urination: Cervical cancer Treatment in Delhi can sometimes cause urinary symptoms, including painful urination. However, this is less common than other symptoms and can also be caused by various other conditions.
Fatigue and Weight Loss: As with many cancers, cervical cancer can cause general symptoms like fatigue and unexplained weight loss. These symptoms are often seen in advanced stages of the disease.
Risk Factors of Cervical Cancer
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Infection: HPV is the leading risk factor for cervical cancer. It is a common sexually transmitted infection that can lead to changes in cervical cells, potentially progressing to cancer over time. Vaccination against HPV is available and recommended for young individuals to reduce this risk.
Smoking: Smoking is a significant risk factor for cervical cancer. Women who smoke are more likely to develop the disease and have a higher chance of it progressing to an advanced stage.
Weak Immune System: A weakened immune system, often due to conditions like HIV/AIDS or immunosuppressive medications, can increase the risk of cervical cancer. A robust immune system helps the body fight off HPV infections.
Early Age of Sexual Activity: Engaging in sexual activity at an early age, particularly before the age of 18, increases the risk of exposure to HPV and, consequently, cervical cancer.
Multiple Sexual Partners: Having multiple sexual partners can increase the risk of HPV infection, which is a primary cause of cervical cancer. Cervical Cancer Doctor in Delhi
Family History: Women with a family history of cervical cancer may have a higher risk due to possible genetic factors or shared environmental exposures.
Oral Contraceptive Use: Long-term use of oral contraceptives (birth control pills) may slightly increase the risk of cervical cancer. However, this risk decreases after stopping their use.
Socioeconomic Factors: Limited access to healthcare and regular screenings can also increase the risk, as cervical cancer may not be detected in its early stages.

I remember learning about dermatomyositis, but I don't remember learning that it's associated with ovarian, cervical, lung, pancreatic, bladder, and gastric cancer. You should do age-appropriate cancer screening in pts presenting with dermatomyositis.
Dermatomyositis is an idiopathic inflammatory myopathy that presents with a combination of proximal muscle weakness accompanied by various cutaneous signs. Cutaneous findings can include a reticular, violaceous rash over the back and shoulders (shawl sign), similar lesions over the small joints of the hands (Gottron papules), and periocular patches (heliotrope rash). These rashes are often pruritic and the pruritis itself can be disabling. It is important to recognize that multiple cancers have been associated with the development of DM, and all patients with new DM should be evaluated for underlying malignancy. Cervical, lung, pancreatic, bladder, and gastric cancer account for up to 70% of underlying cancers. Aside from the spectrum of findings attributed to DM, the majority of cancers are otherwise asymptomatic at the time of diagnosis.
Screening tests, ideally, are guided by presenting signs and symptoms. However, in an asymptomatic patient with no other significant risk factors, testing should begin with age-appropriate cancer screening.
Notably, other studies have suggested that the test most likely to reveal an underlying malignancy may be a computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis, and this can be considered if age-appropriate cancer screening is unremarkable. Multiple unique clinical syndromes or findings are associated with underlying malignancy.
Bottom Line: Dermatomyositis is associated with an increased incidence of cancer. All patients with a new diagnosis should undergo age-appropriate cancer screening. Select other laboratory tests can be considered as noted above.
COMBANK Insight: An astute clinician can seem a hero when he or she recognizes one of many characteristic cutaneous manifestations associated with systemic neoplasms or syndromes. Knowing the organs potentially involved or diseases is paramount in early and appropriate screening. While select cancers have been shown to be overrepresented in patients with dermatomyositis, the association with ovarian cancer is frequently presented across multiple tests through medical school and residency.

This is great! New Zealand is planning to offer the same tests starting next year. So many people put off smear tests because they’re so uncomfortable or because they find the indignity or vulnerability of the procedure upsetting, and so miss an opportunity for treatment if signs of cancer can be caught early. This could make a big difference to those numbers and save many lives.

Joint Pain Versus Arthritis
Tumblr media
Cervical cancer is a common type of cancer that affects cells in the cervix, the lower section of the uterus. It is critical to recognize the early signs and symptoms of cervical cancer in order to receive timely medical assistance. Some of the early warning symptoms are irregular vaginal bleeding, atypical vaginal discharge, and pelvic pain.
While these symptoms do not usually indicate cervical cancer, it is critical to see a doctor if you see any of them.
Early identification of cervical cancer is critical to successful therapy. Routine screening procedures, including as Pap smears and HPV testing, are efficient at detecting cervical cancer in its early stages. If abnormalities are detected in these tests, other diagnostic procedures such as colposcopy and biopsy may be required to confirm the diagnosis.
Prevention is also essential for lowering the risk of acquiring cervical cancer. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the major cause of cervical cancer, thus using condoms and getting vaccinated can help reduce the risk.

The Importance of Regular Gynecological Check-ups
Tumblr media
Regular gynecological check-ups are crucial for maintaining women's health and well-being. These routine visits to the gynecologist serve as proactive measures in preventing and detecting potential health issues, including those related to emergency obstetric care. In this article, we delve into the importance of these check-ups and their role in ensuring timely access to emergency obstetric care.
The Significance of Regular Gynecological Check-ups:
Detecting and Preventing Conditions Early: Regular gynecological check-ups empower women to stay ahead of potential health concerns. During these visits, healthcare professionals can conduct screenings for various conditions such as cervical cancer, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and reproductive health disorders. Early detection significantly improves treatment outcomes and reduces the risk of complications, including those that may require emergency obstetric care.
Promoting Reproductive Health: Gynecological check-ups play a pivotal role in promoting reproductive health. Through discussions on contraception, fertility, and menstrual health, women can make informed decisions about their reproductive choices. Moreover, these visits facilitate open dialogues between patients and healthcare providers, addressing any concerns and providing valuable guidance for maintaining optimal reproductive well-being.
Monitoring High-Risk Pregnancies: For women with high-risk pregnancies, regular gynecological check-ups are particularly crucial. These visits allow healthcare professionals to closely monitor the progress of the pregnancy, identify any potential complications early on, and implement appropriate interventions to mitigate risks. By closely monitoring high-risk pregnancies, the likelihood of requiring emergency obstetric care due to unforeseen complications is significantly reduced.
The Role of Regular Check-ups in Ensuring Emergency Obstetric Care:
Timely Intervention and Management: Regular gynecological check-ups pave the way for timely intervention in cases where emergency obstetric care is needed. By monitoring key indicators of maternal health, such as blood pressure, fetal development, and overall well-being, healthcare providers can identify warning signs of complications that may necessitate immediate medical attention. This proactive approach minimises delays in accessing emergency obstetric care, thereby improving maternal and fetal outcomes.
Preparation for Emergencies: Regular check-ups also serve as opportunities to educate women about the signs and symptoms of obstetric emergencies. By equipping patients with knowledge about when to seek urgent medical assistance, these visits empower women to take prompt action in critical situations. Additionally, healthcare providers can discuss birth plans and emergency preparedness measures with expectant mothers, ensuring that they are well-informed and equipped to navigate potential obstetric complications.
Regular gynecological check-ups are indispensable for maintaining women's health and well-being, as well as ensuring timely access to emergency obstetric care. By detecting and preventing conditions early, promoting reproductive health, and monitoring high-risk pregnancies, these routine visits play a vital role in safeguarding maternal and fetal health. Through timely intervention, preparation for emergencies, and proactive management, regular check-ups contribute significantly to reducing the incidence of obstetric complications and improving overall maternal outcomes. 
Therefore, it is imperative for women to prioritise regular gynecological check-ups as part of their comprehensive healthcare regimen, thereby safeguarding their reproductive health and well-being.
