Can recurring cervical cancer be cured?

Can cervical cancer be cured? For malignant tumors like cervical cancer, many patients often lose confidence in the cure once they learn that they have cancer. This is mainly due to the instinctive fear of cancer. In fact, cervical cancer is not necessarily fatal, but whether it can be cured depends on many factors:

Can early cervical cancer be cured?

Whether early cervical cancer can be cured depends mainly on whether appropriate treatment is taken in time. Generally speaking, early cervical cancer tumors are small and have not spread or metastasized, and the most effective treatment is surgical resection. Extensive total hysterectomy is the most important surgical method for early cervical cancer, usually combined with pelvic lymph node dissection to eliminate adjacent cancerous tissue. After surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine and other treatments can be used for a certain period of time to prevent recurrence.

Whether early cervical cancer can be cured is closely related to the patient's physical function. Only with good physical function and strong immunity can one resist the development of cancer and tolerate various drug treatments. Therefore, it is extremely important for patients with cervical cancer to improve immune function and enhance resistance to tumors. In terms of diet, patients with cervical cancer should supplement their intake of carotene and vitamin C; supplement trace elements zinc and selenium; eat more soybeans and their products. In addition, you can also rely on taking Chinese medicine that has the effect of tonifying the spleen and kidney to enhance immune function and improve resistance to tumors.

Can advanced cervical cancer be cured?

Generally speaking, the earlier cancer is discovered and treated, the higher the cure rate. It can be seen that for malignant tumors such as cervical cancer, early detection and timely treatment are of great significance. However, since the early symptoms of cervical cancer are not obvious, they are often easily ignored by patients, resulting in further development of the disease. If cervical cancer develops to the late stage, can it still be cured?

What is late-stage cervical cancer: In the late stage of cervical cancer, due to the enlargement of the tumor, various compression symptoms may occur. Pain is one of the common compression symptoms. Secondary symptoms may appear, and the lesions may spread to the pelvic connective tissue.

How to treat advanced cervical cancer: Generally speaking, most advanced cervical cancers have already metastasized and cannot be surgically removed. Clinically, the treatment of advanced cervical cancer mainly relies on drug therapy, including chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Radiotherapy can also be used depending on the situation. Both chemotherapy and radiotherapy should be combined with traditional Chinese medicine treatment, which can play a role in enhancing efficacy and reducing toxicity.

Although cervical cancer and other cancers are often treated with radiotherapy and chemotherapy, their toxic side effects on the human body must also be taken into consideration. Therefore, Chinese medicine should be combined with the treatment of advanced cervical cancer to reduce the toxicity of radiotherapy and chemotherapy and alleviate symptoms, while also enhancing the patient's immunity and disease resistance and improving their quality of life.

For patients with advanced cervical cancer who have a wide range of metastasis, weak physical functions, and can no longer tolerate chemotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine can be used for conservative treatment. Although the short-term effect is not as obvious as chemotherapy, the long-term effect is good, and it is effective in improving the quality of life and prolonging survival.
