Journal Title: Journal of the Indian Medical Association - Year 2018, Vol 116, Issue 11
Abstract
There are five gynaecological cancers womb, ovarian, cervical, vaginal and vulval but awareness levels of these cancers are very low. There are common signs and symptoms across some of the gynaecological cancers such as abnormal vaginal bleeding. Other signs are less obvious, and could be due to different health conditions, for example abdominal bloating can indicate Irritable Bowel Syndrome.
