What can we do to look after our own gynaecologica

What can we do to look after our own gynaecological health?

Arm yourself with knowledge.
Know the signs and symptoms of each of the 5 gynaecological cancers - and act on them!

It's essential that everyone knows their 'normal'. We know our own bodies better than anyone else so don't compare your own health to someone else. If something doesn't feel right, speak to a professional. It's frightening, but empowering yourself with knowledge is key to early diagnosis and ultimately survival.

Some of the most common signs to look out for are:

Abnormal bleeding: bleeding after sex/bleeding between periods/post menopausal bleeding

Abdominal pain or discomfort

Changes in vaginal discharge

Back pain

Pain during sex

Changes in bowel habits: diarrhoea/constipation

Eating habits: Feeling full quickly

Urgency/frequency to pee

Changes to the appearance of skin on the vagina/vulva

Fatigue

Persistent bloating

Indigestion

Remember - each gynaecological cancer is unique.
We often think of gynaecological health as just one big thing. But these 5 cancers all have their own individual signs and symptoms. The Talk Peach website has a wealth of information about the individual cancers; their symptoms and risk factors.

If you notice a change that is sustained for over 2 weeks, book in with your GP. Never ever feel silly for seeking medical advice.

If you're not up to date with you're cervical smea

If you're not up to date with you're cervical smear please make it a priority for 2022.

Early detection saves lives.

Abnormalities in the cells of the cervix can be detected by cervical screening and removed.

Cervical cancer is one of the easiest cancers to prevent – as long as we detect the cell changes that cause it, EARLY.

All people aged 25 to 70 who have a cervix need to have cervical screening every 3 years, doing so reduces your risk of developing cervical cancer by 90%.

This includes if you:

are immunised against HPV

have had a subtotal hysterectomy (cervix not removed)

are a trangender man

have had an abnormal cervical screening in the past but no longer have a cervix

are no longer having sex
