Is stomach cancer just an older person’s disease? Not always.

While it’s more common in adults over 50, stomach cancer is increasingly being diagnosed among younger individuals. However, many of these cases are only confirmed at later stages, when symptoms become harder to ignore.

Know your risks. If symptoms persist, get them checked early.

Gastric cancer, also known as stomach cancer, begins in the stomach lining and often develops with few or no early symptoms.

Understanding how it starts, how it spreads, and why early detection matters can make all the difference.

Although gastric cancer is the fifth most common cancer worldwide, it remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths—largely because it is often diagnosed at a later stage..

Your pelvic floor does more than you think.
It supports your bladder, bowel, and reproductive organs—playing a vital role in everyday functions like going to the toilet, intimacy, and stability.

But after gynaecological cancer treatments, it can be weakened. This may lead to issues like incontinence, prolapse, or sexual discomfort.

The good news? Recovery doesn’t stop at remission.
Rehabilitation can help you regain strength, comfort, and confidence.

When it comes to cancers affecting women, va**nal cancer is often left out of the conversation.
That’s why it slips under the radar—especially when early signs seem harmless.

But your body knows when something’s off.
And the earlier you catch it, the better your chances.

Here’s what to look out for:
🩸 Unusual bleeding (especially after menopause)
💥 Pain during in*******se
🔍 Persistent discharge or a lump in the va**na

These may feel awkward to bring up—but they’re never too minor to ask about.

“How often should I get screened?”
It’s one of the most common yet important questions women ask about cancer prevention.

With 1 in 5 people likely to develop cancer before 75, routine screening can mean the difference between early intervention and a delayed diagnosis.

But screening isn’t one-size-fits-all. It evolves with your age, history, and risk factors.

Swipe through for a decade-by-decade guide to recommended gynaecological cancer screenings, then speak to your doctor about what’s right for you.

Vaginal cancer is rare, but its early symptoms often resemble common health issues, which can make it easy to miss. That’s why understanding the risk factors is important.

Women aged 60 and above, those with persistent high-risk HPV infections, a history of cervical cancer or precancerous changes, and exposure to DES before birth are more likely to develop it.

Even if you feel healthy, regular checkups are essential, especially if you belong to any of these higher-risk groups. Being informed and proactive can make a big difference.

Some health signs are easy to ignore – until they’re not. When it comes to va**nal changes, knowing the difference between ‘common’ and ‘concerning’ can change everything.

Your body’s signals matter. While many symptoms are harmless, these always warrant a doctor’s visit:

🩸 Any bleeding after menopause
💧 Watery or bloody discharge that won't stop
⚠️ Pelvic pain or lumps paired with other symptoms

The good news? When caught early, most concerns are treatable. Your health isn't TMI.

Endometrial cancer is often misunderstood, with many women dismissing early symptoms due to common myths. Did you know?

🔬 A normal Pap smear does not rule out endometrial cancer – it only screens for cervical cancer.
⚖️ While obesity increases risk, 1 in 4 cases occur in women with healthy weights.
🩸 The #1 symptom (abnormal bleeding) often appears without pain.

The good news? When caught early, endometrial cancer has a >90% 5-year survival rate in Singapore. At Parkway Cancer Centre, our specialists provide personalised care through advanced diagnostics and treatment options.

Let’s replace misinformation with awareness, because knowing these facts could save lives.

When we dismiss abnormal bleeding as 'just stress' or 'getting older', we miss crucial warning signs.

You deserve to know:
🔴 Postmenopausal bleeding is never normal
🔴 Weeks of spotting is worth a doctor's visit
🔴 Heavy/unpredictable flow needs checking

Don’t rationalize it away. You’re taking charge, because early detection matters.

Cervical cancer screening isn't a one-size-fits-all. While Pap smears and HPV tests work together for early detection, they play different roles in prevention:

🔎 Pap smears are like detectives - finding suspicious cell changes
🧪 HPV tests are like warning systems - identifying high-risk infections

Together, they form medicine's most effective early-warning system.
