Swipe through to understand how leukaemia works and what symptoms to look out for.
Because recognising the signs early on can make all the difference.

Some battles happen beneath the surface.
Blood cancer often develops without early symptoms, making awareness and understanding all the more important.

When abnormal blood cells grow uncontrollably, they interfere with the body’s natural functions, weakening immunity, crowding out healthy cells, and throwing vital systems off balance.

This post breaks down how blood cancers form, how they affect the body, and why early recognition matters.

Some comfort foods might seem harmless, but without balance, they could do more harm than good, especially when it comes to your stomach.

Diets high in processed, salty, or preserved foods and low in fresh produce have been linked to an increased risk of gastric cancer. It’s not about cutting out on your favourites. It’s about being mindful, and making space for fresh, protective choices.

🥗 After all, a little more colour on your plate could go a long way for your health.

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.

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.
