Symptoms of chorionic carcinoma after abortion

Symptoms of choriocarcinoma after abortion may include persistent abnormal vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, and general fatigue. If you find related symptoms, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible. A deeper understanding of its possible causes and coping methods will help to detect and take treatment measures as soon as possible.

1. Abnormal bleeding and systemic symptoms: If there is persistent and irregular abnormal vaginal bleeding after abortion, this is the most typical manifestation of choriocarcinoma, which may be caused by excessive proliferation of trophoblasts. At the same time, the patient may be accompanied by anemia symptoms such as dizziness, fatigue, and even nausea, vomiting and significant weight loss.

2 Abdominal pain and lumps: Choriocarcinoma often affects the uterus and surrounding organs. Some patients may experience varying degrees of severe abdominal pain, and may even feel a lump in the abdomen or vagina. In severe cases, there may be metastatic lesions, such as chest pain, hemoptysis, and other lung manifestations.

3. Reproductive system infection or ectopic metastasis: Due to the malignant characteristics of the lesions, cancer cells may spread through the blood to distant organs, such as the liver and kidneys, resulting in abnormal liver function, low back pain, etc. If the lesions metastasize to the brain, it may also cause neurological symptoms such as headaches, blurred vision, and even epilepsy.

Countermeasures

1. Confirmation by medical examination: When the above symptoms occur, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible to make a clear diagnosis through blood HCG testing and medical imaging methods such as ultrasound and CT, evaluate the scope and type of the disease, and develop a targeted treatment plan.

2. Chemotherapy is the first choice of treatment: Choriocarcinoma is highly sensitive to chemotherapy, and a strong combination chemotherapy regimen is generally used. For example, methotrexate MTX, etoposide and vincristine are common choices. Treatment under the guidance of a doctor has a high cure rate.

3. Surgery and follow-up: For some patients who are ineffective with chemotherapy or have large lesions, hysterectomy may be required. Regular follow-up after treatment is completed to dynamically monitor blood HCG levels to prevent recurrence and metastasis.

4 Daily rehabilitation and prevention: Strengthen nutritional conditioning after surgery, eat more protein-rich foods such as milk, lean meat, etc. to enhance immunity, quit smoking and drinking, and avoid irritating foods. Both husband and wife should take appropriate contraceptive measures to avoid pregnancy again in a short period of time.

If persistent abnormalities occur after abortion, such as persistent bleeding, abdominal discomfort or other obvious symptoms, please consult a professional in time to avoid delaying treatment. Scientific prevention, paying attention to body signals, and regular follow-up are important means of controlling choriocarcinoma. Health needs to be carefully cared for, and paying attention to choriocarcinoma-related symptoms early can help you get out of the shadow of the disease.
