Ovarian Cysts and Cancer : Early Signs and Natural Remedies

Women have two ovaries, one on each side of the uterus. The function of the ovaries is to produce ova (eggs) as well the hormones progesterone and estrogen. Most women have ovarian cysts at some time during their lives but most ovarian cysts disappear without treatment within a few months but the ovarian cysts that have ruptured produce serious symptoms.Ovarian cancer is a type of cancer that begins in ovaries and it often goes undetected until it spreads with in the pelvis and abdomen. At this later stage, ovarian cancer is difficult to treat but the early staged ovarian cancer where the disease is confined to the ovary, is more likely to be treated successfully.

It is a malignant neoplasmic disease of the ovary, occurring most frequently in women between 40 and 60 years of age and occasionally in young women. It is rarely detected in the primary stages and mostly far advanced when diagnosed. Risk factors are—infertility, delayed child bearing, repeated abortions, exposure to carcinogens and radiations, hormonal imbalance etc. The tumor may become evident as a palpable abdominal or pelvic mass accompanied by irregular menstruation or post-menopausal bleeding. In 3rd and 4th stages, patient may have ascites, pedal oedema, dysuria, vaginal discomfort, constipation, abnormal vaginal bleeding.

The treatment of ovarian cancer involves a combination of surgery generally involving removing both ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus as well as the lymph nodes and a fold of fatty abdominal tissue where ovarian cancer often spreads but the less extensive surgery may be possible if ovarian cancer is diagnosed at an early stage and chemotherapy is used to kill any remaining cancer cells. These drugs can be injected into a vein or directly into the abdominal cavity or both but there are various natural remedies available for the treatment of ovarian cysts and cancer without having side effects.

Early signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer include:

What are the causes of Ovarian Cancer?

• The causes of Ovarian cancer are not clear. A cancer begins when a genetic mutation turns normal cells into abnormal cancer cells and the cancer cells multiply and form a mass known as tumor. They can also invade the nearby tissues and break off from an initial tumor to spread elsewhere in the body.

Types of Ovarian Cancer

• Epithelial tumors—These tumors begin in a thin layer of tissue that covers outside the ovaries. 90% ovarian cancers are epithelial tumors.
• Stromal tumors—Stromal tumors begin in the ovarian tissue that contains hormone producing cells. These tumors are usually diagnosed at an earlier stage as compared to epithelial tumors. 7% of ovarian tumors are stromal.
• Germ cell tumors—These tumors begin in the egg-producing cells. They are rare tumors that tend to occur in younger women.
