Patient's question:
I am 20 years old and was diagnosed with primary liver cancer. At that time, the tumor was 9 cm 8.5 cm. I had three interventional treatments. Now I notice that I am not growing any beard, and my pubic hair is almost gone. What could be the reason for this? Will it affect sexual function?Doctor's answer:
General liver cancer patients often suffer severe liver damage, which may lead to decreased androgen levels and increased estrogen levels, potentially causing the previously mentioned condition. The current situation requires not only active treatment but also a positive mindset adjustment. With patience and continued treatment until self-recovery, these conditions will gradually improve. Long-term medication treatment is necessary. Additionally, male patients should seek professional and reputable medical care immediately, considering treatment based on thorough examination results. It is also important to maintain abstinence from sexual activity and keep a good mood.
