Several symptoms of cervical precancerous lesions that are easily misdiagnosed

Experts point out: Although cervical precancerous lesions are the only malignant tumors with a completely clear cause, like most other cancers, their early symptoms are not obvious and are mostly asymptomatic, but can be diagnosed through examination. After development, bleeding during sexual intercourse may occur, and the latter is a small amount of bleeding after menopause. Below, the symptoms of cervical precancerous lesions are summarized:

Increased vaginal discharge

Increased vaginal discharge mainly refers to increased leucorrhea, which is the most common early symptom of cervical precancerous lesions. Of course, increased leucorrhea is not a symptom unique to cervical precancerous lesions. Among married women, increased leucorrhea is not a symptom of cervical precancerous lesions.

Irregular vaginal bleeding

Vaginal bleeding accounts for 81.4% of patients with cervical precancerous lesions. This bleeding often starts after sexual intercourse or defecation. Some people bleed after physical activities or gynecological examinations. Menstruation is also irregular. In the early stage, the amount of bleeding is small and often stops on its own.

In late stage cancer, invasion of large blood vessels or because the cancer itself is rich in blood vessels may cause massive bleeding. Chronic or acute bleeding may cause anemia in patients. Therefore, women who have been postmenopausal for many years should be alert if they experience vaginal bleeding.

pain

This is one of the common symptoms of advanced cervical precancerous lesions. The cancer compresses the nerves in the pelvic cavity, causing pain in the lower abdomen, lower back or thighs; if the cancer invades the rectum, constipation and anal swelling may occur; if it compresses the bladder, frequent urination, urgency, pain and hematuria may occur.

Metastatic symptoms

The metastasis of cervical precancerous lesions is generally more and faster as the lesions progress to the advanced stage, but it is not uncommon for early lesions to metastasize. In addition to the lymphatic system, the metastasis of cervical precancerous lesions is more common in the lungs, bones and liver. At this time, anemia, weight loss, fever or uremia may occur.

In most cases, the symptoms of cervical precancerous lesions are directly related to the progression of the disease, which means that as the disease worsens, the patient's symptoms will become more and more obvious. However, for cervical precancerous lesions, the symptoms in each period will be different to a certain extent, and generally appear one by one.
