Cancer is threatening, and the treatment should not be careless. The editor has compiled a few questions about breast cancer, let's take a look~
01. Can breast cancer patients eat supplements such as Cordyceps and bird's nest? , But is it suitable for breast cancer patients to eat?
Bird's nest is a rare health care product that integrates many nutrients. However, according to animal research, it has been found that bird's nest contains a certain effect of improving the level of estrogen in the body, but there is still not enough. Evidence shows that there is an inevitable relationship between bird's nest and the occurrence of breast cancer, but based on safety considerations, we still do not recommend that everyone eat more.
In addition, people with a family history of breast cancer and high risk of breast cancer should also stay away from supplements, foods and medicines containing estrogen, such as deer fetus, snow clam , etc.
There are so many kinds of Cordyceps on the market, we don't know if they are true or not. However, some experts have found that the content of arsenic in Cordyceps sinensis and its preparations is 4.4-9.9 mg/kg (the limit value of arsenic in the national safety standard for health food is 1.0 mg/kg), long-term consumption is likely to cause excessive intake of arsenic, and May accumulate in the human body, there is a high risk.
Suggestion: Although Cordyceps sinensis has a certain auxiliary effect on tumor treatment in experimental research, no matter what kind of Cordyceps preparation is, it is an adjuvant for tumor treatment, and tumor treatment still requires specialist treatment. In addition, people's constitutions are strong and weak. Do not follow some commercial advertisements blindly, and do not take it privately. It should be consumed under the guidance of a Chinese medicine doctor.
02. Does endocrine therapy cause skin aging? How to remedy it?
Although some breast cancer patients may experience some vaginal dryness and during treatment, there are no obvious spots or wrinkles. The so-called "why do I feel older after treatment" is mainly due to the psychological changes caused by tumor treatment.
03. Do you have to take endocrine medicine regularly? How to remedy if you forget to take it?
Breast cancer patients are faced with a variety of medicines every day. ?
Oral antitumor drug often has a fixed dosage, frequency and duration of medication, which cannot be changed at will. Patients should strictly follow the instructions or prescriptions prescribed by the doctor.
04. What precautions should be taken when flying after total breast cancer resection?
Breast cancer patients who take a plane after total resection, especially during long-distance travel, are often prone to staying in one position for a long time or under the influence of high air pressure. Lymphatic edema of the upper limbs after surgery may also affect the healing of the wound, which is also the reason why many patients are worried. How to avoid such problems?
Suggestion:
1. Within 48 hours or less than 30 days after surgery, It is best not to fly, to avoid pressure changes on the way, which can make the closed wound rip again and the blood vessels in the operation area bleed.
2. It is recommended to wear a suitable elastic sleeve to pressurize the upper limbs when flying. However, when buying elastic sleeves, you should pay attention to the appropriate elasticity. Too tight elastic sleeves are harmful and useless.
3. Keeping the same posture for a long time will slow down the return of upper limb lymph fluid and blood, which may increase the risk of upper limb edema, especially during long-distance flights. It is recommended to drink more water during the flight, stand up every 30 minutes to stretch the upper and lower limbs, or massage the upper limbs to promote blood circulation.
4. Pay attention in the process of traveling. You can use a trolley to push the overweight luggage, or let someone else carry it for you, so as to prevent injury to the upper limbs caused by lifting heavy objects, causing edema and tearing of wounds.
5. When the air pressure changes during takeoff and landing of the plane, the lower jaw can be moved more, chewing and swallowing can be done to adjust the air pressure change in the body and avoid excessive pressure on the internal organs.
05. How to choose a prosthetic breast?
Wearing a suitable prosthetic breast can maintain a uniform and symmetrical body shape, effectively make up for postoperative breast defects, and improve self-confidence; it can reduce neck and shoulder pain caused by inappropriate posture, prevent surgery After the occurrence of oblique shoulder and scoliosis, it can protect the chest from external impact. But after all, everyone's physical condition is different, how to choose?
Suggestion:
First of all, before choosing a breast implant, you should measure your bust size.
Secondly, choose a breast implant according to your own surgical plan and incision wound; choose a breast implant according to the size of the measured bra and the shape of the breast on the healthy side; choose a breast implant according to your own comprehensive factors, such as body shape, comfort , etc. Prosthetic breasts that suit you.
Finally, check after wearing the bra, such as the tightness of the bra (it should not be too tight), whether all the breast tissue is within the cup, whether the shoulder straps are tight and appropriate, and whether the body feels comfortable after putting on the breasts.
06. Is it possible to get pregnant if you have sex during goserelin ?
Goserelin can directly act on the pituitary -ovarian axis, through continuous stimulation of the pituitary, inhibit the pituitary from secreting follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone , which may reduce the destruction of follicles by the chemotherapy drug , reduce the sensitivity of the ovary to the cytotoxic drug , and play a protective role on ovarian function.
Therefore, for breast cancer patients with younger onset age and later stage, the use of goserelin can meet the reproductive needs of young breast cancer patients. So, is it possible to get pregnant if you have sex while using goserelin?
The answer is: no.
The reason is: During the use of goserelin, the drug cuts off the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone from the pituitary gland. Women are in the menopause state and will not have menstruation, so even if they have sex, they will not get pregnant. Generally, after the drug is stopped, primordial follicle begins to recover and grow, and the patient's ovarian function gradually returns to a normal state, and the patient can conceive normally. But to be on the safe side, using a condom during sex is the best form of birth control.
