Rakhi Sabant was admitted to the hospital with chest and abdominal pain. After several tests, the doctors said that Rakhi had a tumor in her uterus. However, it will be known whether the actress is suffering from cancer or not after receiving several physical test reports. The risk of cancer has increased a lot recently. If there is a tumor in the uterus, there is a risk of cancer. Usually, the presence of this type of tumor in the uterus of women between 21 and 50 years of age can be noticed.
Tumors mainly occur in three areas of the uterus. The first is outside the uterine wall. which is called subserous. Second, within the wall of the uterus, called intramural, and thirdly, the part of the uterus from which menstruation occurs, called sub-mucous. Submucous fibroids are more common in women. This results in severe abdominal pain during menstruation, excessive bleeding, and irregular menstruation.
Who is at greater risk?
The cause of uterine tumors is still unknown. But in some cases, the risk of disease is high. If someone in the family has this problem, the risk of the disease increases comparatively. The hormones estrogen and progesterone stimulate the lining of the uterus during the menstrual cycle. This increases the risk of tumor formation. All these hormones help the small fibroids grow.
Be careful if you see any signs?
Fibroids are usually checked for irregular periods, heavy bleeding, and problems conceiving. There are no distinct symptoms of this disease. However, sometimes sudden abdominal swelling can also be a symptom of fibroids.
In many cases, as the size of the uterus increases in the first 7-8 months of pregnancy, the size of the abdomen also becomes the same. Apart from this, an increased rate of urination, severe pain during urination, and lower abdominal pain are also symptoms of this disease.
