3. Breast or Nipple Changes
If your breasts change shape, develop dimples, redness, nipple discharge, or inverted nipples, it may indicate early breast cancer. Regular self-exams are essential.
4. Abnormal Vaginal Bleeding
Bleeding between periods, after intercourse, or after menopause is never normal. It could signal cervical, uterine, or ovarian cancer.
5. Persistent Bloating
Feeling bloated all the time or having a swollen belly that doesn’t go away after dietary changes can be a sign of ovarian or gastrointestinal cancer.
6. Pelvic or Lower Back Pain
Pain in the lower abdomen, pelvis, or lower back that persists may indicate cancer in reproductive organs, such as the ovaries or uterus.
7. Changes in Bowel Habits
Long-term constipation, diarrhea, or blood in the stool may point to colon or rectal cancer. Any ongoing digestive change deserves medical attention.
8. Urinary Problems or Blood in Urine
If you experience frequent urination, pain during urination, or see blood in your urine, it could be related to bladder or kidney cancer.
