Pandemic – women stopped going to the gynecologist
The guest of Iwona Kutyna in the “Onet Rano” program was Ida Karpińska, president of the Polish Organization of the Flower of Femininity, which aims to fight cervical cancer. Karpińska said that awareness of the prevention of this cancer has decreased during the coronavirus pandemic.
– We are talking to women who stopped going to the gynecologist during the pandemic. The Polish Gynecological Society appeals that such a situation has arisen and warns that after this pandemic there will be more advanced cancers, difficult to treat and expensive for the society to treat, Karpińska said.
– That is why we urge the girls to contact a gynecologist – she added.
Women are more afraid of the coronavirus than that the cancer will grow. And the cancer has not stopped, it will continue to develop during these two years – said the president of the National Flower of Femininity Organization.
- How to prepare for an e-visit to the gynecologist?
– Early detected neoplastic changes are curable nowadays. If we examine ourselves systematically, we have a better chance simply – she added.
– Ovarian cancer is a difficult cancer to diagnose. There are specific and non-specific symptoms, not obvious – abdominal pain, flatulence, diarrhea. These are the things that happen to us every day and we do not pay attention – says Karpińska. – If it takes two weeks, you have to start looking.
