Cancers of the female reproductive system that occur when abnormal cells grow in an uncontrolled way are called Gynaecological cancers.

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.

Some women are affected by gynaecological cancers before the menopause. Menopause does not cause cancer, but your risk of developing cancer does increase as you get older.

Early detection of gynaecological cancers is important for effective treatment. Gynec Care Hospital offers a comprehensive diagnostic service including colposcopy, outpatient hysteroscopy, specialist gynaecological ultrasound and biopsy.
