Gynecological Cancer Explained: Symptoms You Shouldn’t Ignore

Описание: Gynaecological cancer symptoms are often mistaken for everyday problems, abnormal bleeding, bloating, and discharge. Most women with gynaecological cancer thought their symptoms were nothing.

I'm Mr Saurabh Phadnis, Consultant Gynaecologist and Gynaecological Oncologist based in London. In this video, I explain why gynaecological cancer symptoms are easy to miss, what the most important red flags are, and why early detection can mean the difference between a simple cure and advanced treatment.

We cover abnormal bleeding, pain, bloating, discharge, which gynaecological cancers are most common, and what "living with cancer" actually means. Most importantly, I explain when you should see a gynaecologist and what to expect during your consultation.

This video is general education and does not replace personalised medical advice. If you have symptoms that concern you, please see your GP or a specialist.
