Vaginal Cancer
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Vaginal cancer is a rare type of cancer that originates in the tissues of the vagina. As with other tumors, early detection is important for medical follow-up.
Signs to pay attention to: vaginal bleeding outside the usual pattern, unusual discharge, discomfort in the pelvic area, or a noticeable lump; some cases have no symptoms at the start.
When should you consult? Any bleeding or persistent change that does not match the normal cycle warrants a gynecological checkup.
Who treats it? The gynecologist and, in a specialized way, the gynecologic oncologist are the professionals who study vaginal cancer, with support from the radiologist for imaging studies. Keeping up with regular gynecological checkups and consulting for any unusual symptom is the most prudent approach.
