  1. SIDE EFFECTS AFTER UTERINE CANCER TREATMENT By: Dr. Seema Singh

  2. INTRODUCTION: Dealing with uterine cancer involves not only facing the challenge of the disease itself but also managing the side effects that may accompany various treatment options. Each woman’s experience is unique, but here’s a simplified breakdown of what some common treatments may bring:

  3. SURGERY • Pain and Discomfort: After surgery, it’s normal to feel some pain or discomfort around the incision area. Your body is healing, so take it easy and follow your doctor’s advice for pain management. • Fatigue: Don’t be surprised if you find yourself more tired than usual. Your body is working hard to recover, so rest is crucial.

  4. 2. RADIATION • Skin Changes: Radiation can affect the skin in the treated area. You might notice it becoming red, dry, or more sensitive. Gentle care and moisturizing can help ease these changes. • Fatigue: Radiation treatments may contribute to fatigue, especially as the sessions progress. Give yourself the rest you need during this time.

  5. 3. CHEMOTHERAPY • Nausea and Vomiting: Some women undergoing chemotherapy may experience nausea or vomiting. Let your healthcare team know so they can help manage these symptoms. • Hair Loss: Hair thinning or loss is a possibility during chemotherapy, but remember, it often grows back after treatment. Consider embracing scarves or hats as stylish accessories. • Fatigue: Feeling exceptionally tired is a common side effect of chemotherapy. Listen to your body, and take breaks when needed.

  6. 4. HORMONE THERAPY • Hot Flashes: Hormone therapy can bring on sudden waves of heat, especially in the upper body and face. Dressing in layers and staying cool can make these moments more manageable. • Changes in Menstrual Cycle: You might notice changes in your menstrual cycle, like irregular periods or even a temporary stop. Keep your healthcare team in the loop about these changes.
