What are the treatments for uterine cancer? Can uterine cancer be cured?

After being diagnosed with uterine cancer, women are best to choose a surgical procedure such as extrafascial hysterectomy for treatment, and can also be assisted by chemotherapy or radiotherapy. At the same time, progesterone and anti-estrogen preparations can also effectively control the metastasis and spread of uterine cancer cells. In addition, patients can also choose to take prescriptions composed of Chinese herbal medicines such as Patrinia scabra, Fritillaria thunbergii, and Smilax glabra.

Uterine cancer can be said to be the most serious gynecological disease. Once it occurs, the chance of cure is very small, and it may directly affect the patient's life safety. However, if the patient can receive effective and scientific treatment in time, it can still help control the disease. So what are the treatments for uterine cancer?

1. Surgical treatment of uterine cancer

For the treatment of uterine cancer, the first choice is surgery. The specific decision of partial hysterectomy or extrafascial total hysterectomy can be made according to the patient's pathological condition and physical fitness. If necessary, pelvic and para-aortic lymph node resection and bilateral adnexectomy should also be performed. If the disease develops to the late stage, tumor cell reduction surgery should be chosen.

2. Radiotherapy or chemotherapy for uterine cancer

Chemotherapy and radiotherapy can be used as adjuvant therapy for patients with endometrial cancer. The drugs needed for chemotherapy include paclitaxel, etoposide, cyclophosphamide, fluorouracil and mitomycin. Although this can effectively control the spread of cancer, it should be noted that both chemotherapy and radiotherapy may bring greater side effects, so you must pay attention to good care.

3. Progestin therapy for uterine cancer

If uterine cancer recurs or the disease has reached an advanced stage, patients can choose to use hormone drugs such as progesterone for conservative treatment. In addition, this treatment can also be used for young female patients who wish to retain their fertility, and anti-estrogen preparations can also be used for treatment.

4. Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment for Uterine Cancer

Traditional Chinese medicine has a certain therapeutic effect on uterine cancer. If it is an early uterine cancer patient, you can use water decoction of Chinese herbs such as Patrinia, Fritillaria, Smilax, Honeysuckle, Sophora japonica, Scutellaria barbata and Prunella vulgaris for conditioning. If necessary, a certain dose of Cortex Moutan, Prunus persica and 15 grams of Scutellaria baicalensis can be added to the prescription. Generally, take one dose a day and take it for multiple courses of treatment.
