What are the precautions for pregnant women with ovarian cancer?

Ovarian cancer is a disease with no obvious symptoms in the early stages. Once discovered, most patients are already in the late stages and are prone to metastasis and recurrence. Most patients have undergone surgery and repeated chemotherapy, and some patients have poor responses. So what are the precautions for pregnant women with ovarian cancer? Let's take a closer look below.

Any woman can develop breast cancer during pregnancy and lactation, but this condition is relatively rare, accounting for about 5% of all breast cancer cases. Therefore, many people do not know much about the treatment of this condition. In fact, the treatment of breast cancer during pregnancy and lactation is the same as the general treatment principles of breast cancer. The special thing is how to deal with the relationship between anti-cancer treatment and pregnancy and lactation.

If breast cancer is found in the early or middle stages of pregnancy, the pregnancy should be terminated in time and anti-cancer treatment should be received as soon as possible. If the patient insists on refusing to terminate the pregnancy, simple surgery for breast cancer can be considered in advance. Radiotherapy can be considered if necessary, because anti-cancer chemotherapy can affect fetal development and cause malformations, which is prohibited. In the late pregnancy (after 28 weeks of pregnancy), anti-cancer treatment for breast cancer can be performed after cesarean section or delivery. Anti-cancer treatment that affects the fetus should be avoided as much as possible before the fetus is born.

If breastfeeding mothers are diagnosed with breast cancer, they should stop breastfeeding immediately. It is forbidden to use female hormones or hot compresses with mirabilite to prevent the metastasis and spread of cancer cells when weaning.

It can be seen from this that breast cancer may also occur during pregnancy. If female friends are preparing to become pregnant, it is necessary to do a breast examination 6 months before pregnancy, which is helpful in preventing the occurrence of breast cancer during pregnancy.
