SIGNS OF UTERINE CANCER A digital brochure

WHAT TO LOOK FOR Many times cancer has symptoms that people ignore. Often times them are seemingly unrelated and people do not correlate the mismatched issues together as something related. It is important to keep note of any physical changes. In this brochure we hope to show some of the most important physical factors that you should be aware of and bring to your doctors attention if there is any change.

UNEXPLAINED WEIGHT LOSS OR GAIN If for some reason you have unexplained weight loss or gain it could be signs of underlying problems. If you have not changed your diet or exercise routine and you are still loosing or gaining at least ten pounds a month it is important to contact your doctor.

CHANGES OF SKIN It is common knowledge that it is important to keep track of the size and color of things like moles and birthmarks. But it is also important to take notice if there is a change of texture, color or scaling of the skin, such as yellowing. Often times people ignore skin problems as small irritations but, if you are having skin issues after a month it is important to get it checked out.

BACK PAIN Back pain is one of the misdiagnosed and often ignored issue people today deal with. If you have chronic or lingering back pain for more than three days it is important to get to a doctor as soon as possible. Often times it an underling issue for much bigger problems such as uterine cancer.
