Although a lot of people mistakenly believe that cancer in the bladder only occurs in middle aged men; it actually affects a lot of women. Ladies are at risk for complex tumors that are often diagnosed in the later stages making treatment difficult. This brings down the numbers of survivors a great deal, which is something that can be easily avoided with awareness.
Lately, the number of patients falling prey to Transitional cell carcinoma are on the increase. This prompts a need for understanding the causes and symptoms of bladder cancer that can lead to timely diagnosis and treatment.
- Causes that Bring about Bladder Cancer
Females of all ages are prone to this sickness; however, those who indulge in smoking face a higher risk of developing the disease as opposed to those who do not smoke. Parasitic viruses and prolonged radiation has also been attributed to bladder cancer. Transitional and Squamous cell carcinomas present itself in most patients while few suffer from Adenocarcinoma.
People who frequently complain of bladder irritation have their Squamous cells become cancerous at times. This leads to Squamous cell carcinoma in the same patients. In fact, even after treatment Adenocarcinoma (although rare) has a high chance of recurrence in many women.
- Symptoms in Women
One of the main symptoms of bladder cancer is rust or orange colored urine. Sadly, many women presume the blood is actually a part of their menstrual cycle and do not correlate it with bladder cancer. Other symptoms include recurrent trips to the bathroom, a stinging vaginal sensation or even a feeling of unfinished urination. If you happen to identify with any of these indicators, a visit to the doctor may be due.
- Misdiagnosis by Doctors
Many physicians mistakenly deduce that the rust colored urine is a result of post-menopause in older women. Some even suggest it to stem from cystitis or as a common case of bladder contagion, leading to a misdiagnosis. This leads to unnecessary hindrance in diagnosis of a sickness that can be treated in time with medication and surgery. One way to remedy this is to accept medication and immediately inform the doctor when the symptoms fail to subside.
This will force the doctor to reconsider and investigate further leading to a timely diagnosis. Progressive treatment options like robotics in surgery can then be used to make surgery more effective and offer a less invasive alternative to the patient.
