Ovarian Cysts and Sonograms
Published on Jun 27 2010, in the categories: Ovarian cancer, Tests
In the case of an ovarian cyst, this disease evolves as a fluid inside the normally solid ovary. Many ovarian cysts have been discovered until now, having different symptoms and forms, and unfortunately this illness is very commonly encountered at women, even if they are younger. The optimistic side of these discoveries is that many ovarian cysts aren’t necessarily a sign of cancer. Only the benign cysts necessitate special attention and treatments, because usually these cysts do not disappear without interventions. In some other rare cases, these benign cysts are cancerous. A symptom that can betray an ovarian cyst might be a discomfort sensed by the patient. In some other cases, this type of cyst can be depicted while a routine examination is done by a specialist, even if the person who requires this examination feels healthy.

As the researchers found out, a good news is that many part of these ovarian cysts disappear without any surgical or treatment intervention. As most of the ovarian cysts are benign, the doctors don’t interpret them as very serious health problems, because there are already many ways to get rid of them.
The most majority of ovarian cysts are named functional cysts. They are formed around a developing egg, from the fluid that surrounds the egg. This fluid forms periodically in the ovulation periods, around the developing eggs. In some occasions, this fluid forms larger than in normal cases, while this fluid determines the ovary to grow in dimension from within. If the fluid gathered in the ovary expands larger than a normal follicle, reaching to measure three quarters of an inch in diameter, then the suspicion of a follicular cyst is more and more probable. The ovary’s expansion resembles a balloon that was filled with water. The color of the surface that covers the ovary turns from white to gray in this case. These cysts usually don’t grow larger than 3 or 4 inches, and bug part of theses cysts disappear by themselves because they dissolve in the extra fluid in a month period.
In the time of ovulation, the covering of the ovary disappears and the egg gets out. After hours, this covering recovers, while the cells from the ovary regroup forming the corpus luteum. This corpus is responsible for the progesterone secretions, this hormone preparing the uterine lining cells that expect the fertilized egg. The corpus luteum forms every month, during the woman’s menstruation. Some cells that compose the corpus luteum can produce fluid inside this corpus, which will form cysts. Sometimes, in rare cases, these cysts can achieve dimensions of a few inches. Alike follicular cysts, corpus luteum cysts can disappear by themselves through disolvation during a month’s period. In many of these cases the corpus luteum cysts will disappear entirely, leaving no tracks.
The vaginal sonograms are the most accurate examinations that can depict ovarian cysts. The sonogram procedures use a small instrument which can easily pass into the vagina. The small instrument that was introduced into the vagina will bounce some sound waves off the uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries, in order to compose an image on a monitor. This image will be examined by the doctor and it will be interpreted in order to determine a diagnosis for each case. With the help of sonograms the cyst can be categorized more easily than through other methods.

Ovarian Cancer
Published on Jun 27 2010, in the categories: Ovarian cancer, Tests
The mostly used mode of diagnosis for the ovarian cancer is that of finding the prognostic factors. From these factors, the best known are stage and, in some advanced cases of disease, the volume of residual disease is also taken into consideration. At the other pole, there are factors such as the patient’s age, DNA ploidy, or histopathologic grade, which are less considered prognostic factors by specialists.
<-336x280 Large Rectangle - center->
The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) created a well determined list of ways of staging the gynecological cancers. The FIGO stage is very accurate in ovarian cancer prognosis, compared to other methods. The staging of gynecological cancers takes into consideration both the surgical and pathological discoveries into account. This is why, a new term was brought to light, that of “surgicopathologic stage”.
If a woman was diagnosed with FIGO stage I ovarian carcinoma, she must know that this prognosis is not very grave, as there are other prognosis. The FIGO stage I ovarian carcinoma can be discovered undergoing a special and complete gynecological procedure, which is done by a gynecological oncologist. At this stage I, the chances of recovery are exponentially bigger (90 %) than, as well as patients with stages IA and IB. The most dangerous stages of the stage I FIGO category are the grade 3 histogoly and IC substage. In these later stages, the survival rates are smaller than in the stage IA and IB cases (5 year survival for over 90 % of cases), the rate reaching smaller survival numbers. Even if the IC substage signifies malignant cells, it is possible that these cells are only exfoliated, while the most IB stages are more dangerous and they express separated primary tumors.
In the stage II of ovarian cancer are included the small and heterogeneous type of cancer, which represents 10 % of ovarian cancers. This stage refers to the extention of the ovarian cancer to other organs, specifically the pelvic, fallopian tubes, and pelvic peritoneum.
However, the ovarian cancer is mostly found in stage III, with a number of 50 % of the discovered cases. The characteristic of this type of cancer is its spreading towards the peritoneal regions, which are the pelvic and abdominal peritoneum. Also, the metastases to retroperitoneal lymph nodes are quite often encountered.
Another stage for gynecological cancer is the stage IV, which includes parenchymal liver metastases or extra-abdominal metastases. The number of patients that were discovered in the IV stage reaches 13 %. The metastatic sites are found in these cases in the liver and lungs. Also, there is one-third of the patients that have ovarian cancer, who have pleural effusions, while ¾ of the women in this stage present malignant cells. In some of these cases, the metastases happen in the spleen as well, and they might need splenectomy. The brain metastases in the stage IV are less encountered and only 0.1 of the grave cases.
Nowadays, the grading of the gynecological or ovarian cancer is clinically necessary only to define the stage I of the disease’s evolution. This happens because at lower grade tumors, the chemotherapy may not be recommended.

<p>A daily single cup of tea reduces <strong>ovarian cancer</strong> risk, after a recent study. More than two cups a day, reduces the risk of <strong>ovarian cancer</strong> by 12-13% in case of the black tea, say the Australian researchers, quoted by The Telegraph. The most effective is green tea, but black has almost the same effect on tumors, as is mentioned in the journal Cancer Causes and Control. One cup of black tea reduces the risk of disease by 10% installation, while a green tea reduces it by 20%. Ovarian cancer is the fifth cause of mortality among women. Also called "the shadow killer" because symptoms do not appear until the disease is very advanced. Risk factors include family history and possibly breast cancer already treated. The most vulnerable are suprapornderale women and those who do hormone therapy.
The study conducted by the Queensland Institute of Medical Research assessed 2,800 women aged betweem 18 to 79 years, diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Similar results are obtained in the case of herbal tea. This study not only support the earlier findings, made by the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden. The research done here have concluded that regular consumption of tea can even halve the risk of ovarian cancer. Another study conducted last year showed that three cups of tea reduces the risk of illness of breast cancer to young women by 37%.
<p><strong>Talcum powder can increase the risk of ovarian cancer illness to women?</strong>
<p>Women who use talcum powder every day are 41% higher predisposed to ovarian cancer.Scientists fear that talcum powder applied in intimate areas in small amounts can reach the ovaries causing inflammation that allows cancer cells grow. Although previous studiesgave the answer to several problematic questions, surveys conducted in the United States show that the chances of ovarian cancer diseases are quite high, informs Daily Mail.<br />
<p>Experts School of Medicine at Harvard University in Boston, studied over 3,000 women and found out that using talcum powder once a week can increase to 36% the chances to ovarian cancer illness, reaching 41% for the ones who use talc every day. Also for people who have in their family history cases of the disease, the chances are higher. The findings that using talcum powder on other body parts do not cause disease risks were published in the American Cancer Epidermiologia journal.
<p><strong>A substance of turmeric is used to treat cancer?</strong>
<p>Cancer cells treated with a substance found in Indian saffron, curcumin, become more susceptible to traditional cancer treatment.The discovery is especially important in case the cancer cells are resistant to chemotherapy, which is met often according the EmaxHealth. Experiments conducted by the researchers at University of South Dakota have shown that if cancer cells are pretreated with curcumin, the ingredient from which is made the so healthy Indian saffron shrinks the illness effects considerably, as in the radiation sessions case.
<p><strong>Ultrasonic analysis are essential in detecting ovarian cancer?</strong>
<p>Ultrasound is much better in diagnosing ovarian cancer than a medical examination, shows a study by U.S. researchers. It seems that ultrasound helps to detect malignant tumors in 73% of cases, with much better results than analysis of a patient's symptoms, informs Science Daily. However, physicians may be guided by the analysis of symptoms for the detection of benign tumors (which are detected at a rate of 91% in this way). The study was conducted on a sample of 272 women.

<p>A daily single cup of tea reduces <strong>ovarian cancer</strong> risk, after a recent study. More than two cups a day, reduces the risk of <strong>ovarian cancer</strong> by 12-13% in case of the black tea, say the Australian researchers, quoted by The Telegraph. The most effective is green tea, but black has almost the same effect on tumors, as is mentioned in the journal Cancer Causes and Control. One cup of black tea reduces the risk of disease by 10% installation, while a green tea reduces it by 20%. Ovarian cancer is the fifth cause of mortality among women. Also called "the shadow killer" because symptoms do not appear until the disease is very advanced. Risk factors include family history and possibly breast cancer already treated. The most vulnerable are suprapornderale women and those who do hormone therapy.
The study conducted by the Queensland Institute of Medical Research assessed 2,800 women aged betweem 18 to 79 years, diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Similar results are obtained in the case of herbal tea. This study not only support the earlier findings, made by the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden. The research done here have concluded that regular consumption of tea can even halve the risk of ovarian cancer. Another study conducted last year showed that three cups of tea reduces the risk of illness of breast cancer to young women by 37%.
<p><strong>Talcum powder can increase the risk of ovarian cancer illness to women?</strong>
<p>Women who use talcum powder every day are 41% higher predisposed to ovarian cancer.Scientists fear that talcum powder applied in intimate areas in small amounts can reach the ovaries causing inflammation that allows cancer cells grow. Although previous studiesgave the answer to several problematic questions, surveys conducted in the United States show that the chances of ovarian cancer diseases are quite high, informs Daily Mail.<br />
<p>Experts School of Medicine at Harvard University in Boston, studied over 3,000 women and found out that using talcum powder once a week can increase to 36% the chances to ovarian cancer illness, reaching 41% for the ones who use talc every day. Also for people who have in their family history cases of the disease, the chances are higher. The findings that using talcum powder on other body parts do not cause disease risks were published in the American Cancer Epidermiologia journal.
<p><strong>A substance of turmeric is used to treat cancer?</strong>
<p>Cancer cells treated with a substance found in Indian saffron, curcumin, become more susceptible to traditional cancer treatment.The discovery is especially important in case the cancer cells are resistant to chemotherapy, which is met often according the EmaxHealth. Experiments conducted by the researchers at University of South Dakota have shown that if cancer cells are pretreated with curcumin, the ingredient from which is made the so healthy Indian saffron shrinks the illness effects considerably, as in the radiation sessions case.
<p><strong>Ultrasonic analysis are essential in detecting ovarian cancer?</strong>
<p>Ultrasound is much better in diagnosing ovarian cancer than a medical examination, shows a study by U.S. researchers. It seems that ultrasound helps to detect malignant tumors in 73% of cases, with much better results than analysis of a patient's symptoms, informs Science Daily. However, physicians may be guided by the analysis of symptoms for the detection of benign tumors (which are detected at a rate of 91% in this way). The study was conducted on a sample of 272 women.
Natural Cures For Ovarian Cancer
Published on May 19 2010, in the categories: Ovarian cancer, Tests
Signs that accompany the ovarian cancer, are pain, vague abdominal pain, discomfort, bloating after meals, sore legs or hands, burns, heat in the abdomen and genital area, headache, nausea, breast pain, menstrual cycle cranky, sting in the whole body, muscle pain.
<-336x280 Large Rectangle - center->
Because drug treatments for this disease can have unbearable side effects, were searched natural cures for ovarian cancer, with many plants or other substances from nature. These treatments can help the life of the patient in reinvigorating the immune system by stimulating the reactions of the illness, and therefore can be compared with a no-scalpel surgery. Even if some cause some effect unwanted, herbal preparations help to avoid cutting blood vessels and the danger of septicemia and intestinal obstruction. The alternative treatments are different recipes which can stops the evolution of disease, if are strictly respected with a natural feeding regime. The natural cures for ovarian cancer can be external or internal.
Internal infusions: Marigold, 10 g, 40 g nettle, shepherd's purse 10 grams, 25 grams glutinous, yarrow 20 g 1 g apple Wolf, Wool 10 g, 20 g flowers white dead nettle. Soak in 2 tablespoons of mistletoe leaves in March to 200 ml cold water, leave covered 8:00 and drink in two innings, including one at bedtime, being a good immune and tumor inhibitor; 10% alcohol tincture 400 a mixture, in equal parts with leaves tuia, mountain peony flowers, herba of celandine and saschiu, stigmas of saffron, pepper frog herba, fennel fruits and roots of Angelica; take 15-20 drops 3 times daily between meals, a cure for 1-2 months per quarter; pure aloe vera, which consume one teaspoon three times daily 30 minutes before meals in a cure for 14-20 days;
External cures: - vaginal washes with 100-150 ml injection of a mixture, in equal parts of chamomile, calendula, red clover, yarrow, horsetail and expensive (bark), each 30 grams to 1 liter water; sit baths made weekly with concentrated infusion of yarrow; massage 2-3 times per day cretisoara oil, comfrey and milfoil;100 g mixture of honey and 50 g apilarnil, which are taken daily at least 3 tablespoons For three months, to clean the body; 100 g mixture of honey and pine resin 5 g plus 10 g of powdered red flowers tapasnic, obtaining a paste applied to the pubic area, a few days in a row; 600 g lamb with honey mixed with powder polyfloral herba of cretisoara (100 grams) raspberry buds (100 g), black poplar buds (50 g) and angelica seeds (50 g) to take a teaspoon, 3-5 times daily 10 minutes before meals.
The effects of these natural treatments are: estrogen receptor inhibits cell attachment of various specific tissues, including tumor tissue - estrogen antagonist effect; inhibit aromatase (the enzyme that converts testosterone into estrogen), decreased conversion of estradiol to estriol in the afflictions of the dominant hormone estrogen breast, ovaries, uterus, prostate and other organs (colon, heart, brain, bone) formation decreases hidroxiestronei alpha (metabolite of estrogen which stimulates tumor cells).
Cancer cure requires "small sacrifices" (severe diet, enemas, baths, washes, etc..), But our health is worth more than anything. People who really want to regain health, treatment and follow rules, however strict they are.

Are There Tests For Ovarian Cancer
Published on May 05 2010, in the categories: Tests
Ovarian cancer has become an infamous assassin all over the world. Affecting more than one hundred thousand women and claiming the very own lives of more than fifty thousand; it is placed in the fourth position in the cancerous victims statistical data information.
Unfortunate things revolve constantly around this particular disease and the way it affects the female reproductive system, with its metastasizing properties and spreading all around to other vital organs, making it nearly to impossible to get rid of it.
<-336x280 Large Rectangle - center->
It all works like this: The ovarian cancer is developed from an unknown source. It is believed that it is hormonal related, but most of the cases are actually acquired from the DNA gene passing on from a first or second degree (only in some cases) relative who actually has or still is suffering from a cancerous affection, from an ovarian one to the well known breast cancer.
Breast cancer has a forty percent recurrence chance, in another form, like the ovarian cancer, in most of the cases but it can appear in the lungs, developing tumors there, or in the neck, and many other organs, though it has a particularity, and in most of the cases, it develops in the reproductive system, affecting the whole ovarian region and the apparatus.
While many researches are continuously studying the effects and the whole recurrence phase of this particular affection, the other reason for its acquiring, is in the very own gene of the person. Not from previous DNA gene pass on from a first degree relative, but developed on its own, as a breast cancer form in the yearly twenties, after an amount of time, there are many chances of recurrence, in the ovarian region, affecting women even after they reached and exceed the post menopausal period.
Many women, alarmed by the situation and the fact that the ovarian cancerous disease is more and more of a prolific and very efficient killer, they are asking if there are ovarian cancer test that can be performed really quick and easy in order to determinate if they are suffering or not from a cancerous disease.
The negative aspect of all this is that although there is one, the whole result has to come in accordance with all the bodily sensations and effects, things that are out of place from a period of time, and most importantly if the symptomatic states are visible, if the woman in doubt has recalled changes, in the whole monthly menstruation.
There are ovarian cancer tests, like the Papanicolau one, when the vaginal secretion is subjected to some test in order to see if it contains info regarding the whole status of the reproductive system, but it is not quite a good indicator, because the cell division and other dysfunctions can mimic the normal flow of things so it can be a very problematic aspect.

Ovarian Cancer Test
Published on Apr 14 2010, in the categories: Tests
Ovarian cancerous affections are one of the most complex and deadly diseases in the world. There are basically one hundred thousand women who are suffering at this moment by this terrible disease and not to mention the other fifty thousand ones who will lose their lives by the end of this year, while some of them do not even know it at this point.

While the treatment is not yet fully developed, the specialized medical staff in the fields of gynecology and oncology is more axed on the chemo therapy form with the chemical mix inserted in to the blood stream in order to eliminate all dysfunctions that lie in the cell’s very own structure. Other forms of therapy consist in the surgical remove of the tumor alone, when it has been developed on the right side of the tissue surface, just near the fallopian tubes which the egg uses to travel towards the womb.
The ovarian cancer is a medical mystery in many forms, especially the one with its acquiring. The cure alone is somewhere between finding the proper thing that makes cancerous be and the overcoming of the division of crank cell layers. It is this particular battle that the scientists are fighting with ongoing efforts from some time now and the results seem to come in to a more favorable light. Last decade we would not even thought about the implications of the chemo side effects and the issues that the negative aspects alone could have in time on the body. It is dated that some cancers are even encouraged by the poisons that are present in the chemo therapy, and will eventually develop after a certain time frame.
The imbalances that occur during the cell division of the ovarian cancer are precarious and the most cases do not develop in the same standard way. It evolves differently in different individuals, and it is often these issues that do not let the progressive treatment methods function properly.
The cells are actually very useful when doing their particular job, whether they help the general proper function of the entire tissue region or just help closing down a lesion that may have appeared, they are all a big organism, with a brain of its own.
The cell itself has a life of its own and once the responsibility is over, and the life comes to an end, her role is taken by other cell which is divided just for the sake of delivering the necessary role in the tissue flesh.
When the ovarian cancer is present in the body, the things start to change, and the change is merely visible. It is only felt at a more cell level, when the older dying cells are no longer replaced with freshly new divided cells, and the cell division process alone is not started by a certain organic need, but by unknown factors which create chaotic cell activity.
This is why a proper regular visit to the gynecology specialist is required from time to time in order to make an ovarian cancer test, to always be sure…

Ovarian Cancer And Gas
Published on Mar 08 2010, in the categories: General info, Tests
When it comes to death rate and ovarian cancer the balance is quite catastrophic. This disease in particular is on a wave of damage and it is nick named by the medical community as the ‘silent killer’. Last year alone the ovarian cancerous affections claimed the lives of almost twenty five thousand women and affected another fifty thousand.
<-336x280 Large Rectangle - center->
The on growing risk rate that leads to all this death statistics are indirectly proportionate to the age and pregnancy rates that decreasing. The risk become more obvious if we take into consideration the statistics that claim out that twenty percent of all women that in their families have a first or even second degree relative that once in their life time have encountered a cancerous affection, regardless of the fact that it was an affection in the other area than the ovary, such as breast region or other, are prone to develop a cancerous affection.
Some of these women that are inside the twenty percent ratio may or may not develop this kind of affection in the ovarian region after they reach the age of fifty, or encounter the post menstrual period. There are some genes that can increase the risk of the apparition of ovarian cancerous affection, in women that have the BRCA and BRCA2, mutative genetic material and this can lead to the early stages of development with much higher risks.
All in all this kinds of mutations can depend on a lot of factors that are out of any sufferer’s control. As recent reports the ovarian cancerous affections is the fourth leading death cause as a cancer form and the first in the oncology and gynecology diseases...
Some problems that are very common are identifying the ovarian cancer and this happens because of the numerous facts and symptoms that can easily mimic other diseases and so a proper diagnosis is very hard to set.
This is happening in the early stages of development, mostly the first and the second one, when the non symptomatic states can miss lead even specialized medical doctors. This is why a much deeper investigation and more analyzes are needed. Therefore a constant medical consultation is often the proper way in preventing ovarian affections.
The medical oncologist recommends a monthly examination in order to prevent it. Prevention is in this case, a very important aspect, and it sometimes can help if you inform yourself about the numerous slim symptomatic states that the cancerous affections have.
An early discovery of a cancerous affection in the ovarian region would, of course, mean a better chance in treating it and if we are talking about a more advanced stage, like in the third one, we can talk about survival rates as well. As we know by now a cancerous affection has four stages. The first two have a more non symptomatic state and usually these are similar with the effects that the ovarian cancer has on a previous healthy body.

What are the existing market products that are designed to fight against this disease? Well, when starting to talk about this we have to mention the so many existing biological factors and other which offer anti cancerous medications that can really create a certain visible impact from a medical point of view. In fact it is a better alternative for the sufferers who have to choose when in some kind of a cancer treatment; it has been proven to be more good for the body itself then chemo, and all those toxins pumped up in the body.
<-336x280 Large Rectangle - center->
In some many words, factors or orally ingested medication which interrupt the natural standard development of cancer cell structures but with no negative effects after taking them such as the common hair loss, the constant nausea feeling, vomiting, and that time frame where everything is down and you are feeling depressed.One of these medical factors and strategies that fight the good fight against ovarian affections targets the formation itself of the blood vessels circular movement through the body.
These can be structured in the Angiogenesis part. It is similar in process with the tissue diminish that can be done through surgical intervention. In order to do that, it is necessary to control the growth of the nutritional substances and some other blood vessel ‘cleaning’ methods that also remove the unpleasantness that may occur during other, more brutal forms of cancerous therapy.
The formation of the blood vessels themselves are a complex medical recent discovery , but the main fact remains, and this lies I between the constant development and the growth of the nutritional values and whether they are created by normal or abnormal diseased skin tissues.
When talking about the development of the blood vessels and what sustains their activity of the normal flow of vascular endothelial growth factor which can be briefly defined as VEGF, which is developed in much higher quantities when the cancerous cell have an imbalanced and peculiar activity.
But what about the Anti-Angiogenesis factors and anti body effects? - Antibodies are small segmented tissue cells that are developed mostly in the specialized immune system and they are medically qualified as lymphocytes. When the lymphocytes are targeting to attack the foreign influx of bodily substances, mostly the bacterium and infections, it means that the small tissue cells from the immune system.
Unfortunately, the healthy cell layers for some reason, can mimic the formation and content of the diseased cancerous cellular structure and for this to work it can be really difficult, and so the specialized immune system has a much difficult issue in detecting the right diseased cells, making it all more difficult for a cancer to attack. Nowadays, the medical research studies have reached a better solution when it came to maintaining the VEGF circulating influx when talking about this medical part in synthesized effects happened in the laboratory.

Diagnosing Ovarian Cancer
Published on Feb 16 2010, in the categories: General info, Tests
Ovarian cancer is a cancerous growth arising from different parts of the ovary.Most ovarian cancers, that meaning as much as ninety percent of the number, are cataloged as being epithelial and were thought to start from the surface or the epithelium of the ovary and the surrounding tissue. However, recent studies suggest that the fallopian tube, from which the ovarian sphere detaches, and could also be the source of many forms of ovarian cancers and tissue related infections or diseases.
<-336x280 Large Rectangle - center->
Since the tubes and ovaries are close related between one and other, it is hypothesized that some of these cell structures can mimic the ovarian cancerous affection. Other forms initially develop from the cells that create the egg defined as the germ cell tumor or the supporting cell structures that exist in the genital and pelvic region, the cord and other areas.
In the last period , in America , there were a twenty five thousand women diagnosed with first and second stage of the ovarian cancer and other sixteen thousand died from it, detecting it only in its last stages where the cancerous cells and malignant tissue already spread to other organs .
The high risk increases also with a certain age and can outgrow with the pregnancy levels. Lifespan risk is about percent, but some of the women with affected first an d second degree relatives have a low five percent risk to acquire it.Women that suffer from a mutation in the BRCA 1 or on the BRCA 2 organic genes can carry a higher risk that varies from twenty five and sixty percent. This can depend on the specific gene mutation that a woman can suffer during post menopause period. Ovarian cancer affections are nowadays the fifth death cause from a form of cancer in women and the leading cause for dieing as a gynecological cancerous disease.
In the early development stages the ovarian cancer affection can be associated with the abdominal distension and other forms of abdominal pains. The nine to ten year relative survival rates goes in percentages from eighty four to eighty six. The ovarian affections such as the cancerous one have a non specific symptomatic state.
