Ovarian and fallopian tube cancer

Ovarian cancer is a cancer that forms in or on an ovary. It results in abnormal cells that have the ability to invade or spread to other parts of the body. When this process begins, there may be no or only vague symptoms. Symptoms become more noticeable as the cancer progresses. These symptoms may include bloating, pelvic pain, abdominal swelling, constipation and loss of appetite. Common areas where the cancer may spread include the mucous membrane of the abdomen, lymph nodes, lungs and liver.

Primary fallopian tube cancer, often simply fallopian tube cancer, is a malignant neoplasm that originates in the fallopian tube. The internal location of the fallopian tubes makes early diagnosis difficult. Symptoms are nonspecific and may include pain and vaginal discharge or bleeding. A pelvic mass can be detected during a routine gynecologic examination. Vaginal discharge in fallopian tube carcinoma results from intermittent hydrosalphinx, also known as hydrops tubae profluens.

Treatment BeterKlinic

BeterKliniek is the clinic for Integrative Medicine that bridges regular and non-regular medicine.

An van Veen (physician) and Michael van Gils (therapist) look for the cause of a condition or disease. That is where the treatment starts otherwise, as people often say, it is 'carrying water to the sea'. We call this cause medicine. Sometimes it is also desirable to treat the symptoms (at the same time). We call this symptom medicine.

Chronic disorders often have their cause in epi- genetics. You can schedule a free informative telephone consultation (phone number 040-7117337 until 1 p.m.) at BeterKliniek to discuss your symptoms so that we can provide you with further advice.
