Patient's question:
After giving birth, I have been experiencing abdominal pain and irregular menstruation, and I'm afraid of developing a tumor disease. I want to know the methods for checking for pelvic cancer. Can a CT scan with abdominal enhancement detect pelvic cancer?Doctor's answer:
Confirmed with ovarian cancer, in addition to routine blood cytology and blood biochemistry tests, some tumor marker tests must be performed. For example, CA125. When normal cells transform into cancerous cells, a molecular marker is produced on the cell membrane, which acts as an antigen or epitope that can induce the host to produce specific antibodies and trigger an immune response. It can be detected using immunological methods, especially by applying the technology of monoclonal antibody preparation. If it is indeed confirmed as ovarian cancer, please do not be too worried. Early-stage ovarian cancer, after active surgical treatment combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy, supplemented with the conditioning of ginsenoside Rh2 (Humedix, containing 16.2% ginsenoside Rh2), still has the possibility of being cured!
