BREAKING THE CANCER BIAS AND EMBRACING EQUITY IN WOMEN’S HEALTHCARE
Authored by Dr. Pushpa Naga C H, Department of Radiation Oncology, Aster CMI Hospital, Bangalore Women’s health entails a variety of gender-specific issues that contribute to the occurrence, management and outcomes of health conditions. Cancer is raising as one of the major women’s health concerns. Each year, millions of women are diagnosed with cancer around the world. Hence it is important to reduce stigma and raise awareness about myths and misinformation regarding cancer. Though the term “cancer” is known for its fatality, nearly 40% of cancer deaths are preventable and at least two-thirds of common cancers are curable with timely diagnosis. Comprehensive awareness programs, preventive measures, regular screening programs, early detection and appropriate treatment can save many woman’s lives every year. Every cancer is different and so is every person. One size doesn’t fit all, and every challenge demands a different solution. Cancer of the breast, cervix, uterus, ovary, oral cavity, lung, colorectal and skin are the common cancers occurring among women in India. The risk of developing cancer varies as per hereditary/genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors. General factors associated with a higher risk of developing cancer include a personal or family history of cancer, increasing age, obesity, alcohol, tobacco usage, diet (fried foods, red meat), reproductive history (early menarche, late menopause, no children), poor hygiene, sexual activity at a young age or with multiple partners, decreased immunity, exposure to radiation/chemicals and few specific infections caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), human papillomavirus (HPV), hepatitis viruses, helicobacter pylori and others. However, no such risk factor may be apparent in more than one-third of cancer cases. Cancer prevention using prophylactic vaccination against sexually transmitted HPV, Cervarix™/ Gardasil™ is recommended to prevent HPV-associated cancers like cervical, vaginal and vulval cancer in women. The current HPV prophylactic vaccines have indications for all women up to the age of 45 years but are routinely recommended to adolescents at age 9-15 years. It is extremely effective when administered before the first sexual intercourse. Healthy lifestyle changes, regular physical activity (exercise/yoga/brisk walks), avoiding tobacco/smoking/alcohol, consumption of a healthy diet- increased intake of fruits, vegetables & whole grains, decreased intake of fried, spicy food & meat, calorie restriction, maintaining personal hygiene, avoidance of unnecessary exposure to radiation, monthly self-examination (breast/oral cavity) to detect any abnormalities will also contribute in reducing the cancer risk. Genetic testing for specific gene changes (mutation) such as BRCA 1 & 2, TP53, PTEN, ATM and others, helps to estimate hereditary cancer risk. Effective screening programs available for early detection of these common cancers can reduce the risk of death by nearly 80%. Women above the age of 40 years, with or without a family history of cancer should undergo annual mammography, annual cervical pap-smear test, screening of ovaries and uterus, annual colposcopy/sigmoidoscopy and/or faecal occult blood test, clinical oral examination to detect any changes. Screening with tumour-specific markers like CA-125 (in ovarian cancer), CEA (in colon cancer), AFP (in liver tumours) and a few others help in early identification. Early diagnosis with symptoms/warning signs of cancer includes any swelling, lump or unusual breast changes, abnormal vaginal discharge or spotting/bleeding, chronic non-healing ulcer, skin changes, chronic coughing, hoarseness, change in voice, difficulty in swallowing, abdominal/pelvic pain, persistent bloating, unexplained weight loss, loss of appetite and altered bowel habits could improve survival and cancer outcomes. The treatment options for each cancer differ and as well as the prognosis. Most often, cancer treatment involves a multimodality approach of surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy and/or immunotherapy. Cancer is curable if detected early and it is treatable in all stages, even in a very advanced stage when it is widespread to various body parts, it is still controllable. Effective treatments are now available that can make cancer patients live longer and better. As we talk about gender equality, breaking bias and women’s empowerment, let us make Women’s Health a Priority.
Premium Phones Like Galaxy S23 series to Stay in Demand Despite Slowdown: TM Roh

Gudi Padwa/Ugadi Pachadi and its benefits
Dr Soumita Biswas, Chief Nutritionist, Aster RV Hospital Gudi Padwa/Ugadi is the festival that marks New Year’s Day for several states, including Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Maharashtra. This year, the festival will be celebrated on 22nd April. It is prepared on this day and offered to God seeking blessings for the year ahead. Pachadi is prepared by adding jaggery, salt, cut pieces of raw mangoes, neem flowers in Karnataka. In Andhra they add Tamarind juice to soak all these ingredients. This preparation recipe differs from place to place. Significance of the Pachadi The dish is a mixture of different tastes like sweet, salt, pungent and bitter. Sweet taste comes from Jaggery which symbolizes happiness, salt symbolizes fear. Pungent taste from the raw mangoes symbolizes surprises in life and bitterness from the neem flowers represents the sadness of life. In addition, some places add tamarind also to add sour taste which represents unpleasantness. Basically, it shows a mixture of everything in life. Each ingredient has many nutritional benefits. Jaggery Jaggery is an excellent source of iron for a plant product. A single serving may contain nearly ten percent of your required iron intake for the day. Iron is critical for supporting healthy blood cells. Getting enough iron in the diet prevents anemia, tiredness and improves muscular function. It also has different minerals and vitamins like choline, betaine, Vitamin B12, B6, folate, calcium, iron, phosphorus, magnesium, selenium, and manganese. Compared to other sweeteners, jaggery is a good source of antioxidants. The molasses left in jaggery contains phenolic acids that help reduce oxidative stress on the body. Antioxidants in general are linked to a lower risk of certain forms of cancer, reduced signs of aging, and lower risk of dementia and macular degeneration. As a result, switching from white or brown sugar to jaggery may help reduce the risk of developing these conditions. Raw Mangoes Raw mango is rich in various vitamins and minerals. The richness of essential B vitamin niacin and fiber in raw mango promotes the health of the heart. It helps in lowering cholesterol levels, improves blood circulation and prevents the risk of cardiovascular diseases. The goodness of vitamin C essential nutrients triggers the immune system, improves vision, makes your skin and hair healthy and lowers the risk of prostate cancer. Having it also shields the body from various infections like common cold, cough etc. Also, raw mango contains less calories and sugar which helps to trigger metabolism & keep satiated and burn extra fats, as in weight loss. It also helps in digestion, detoxification and acts as antioxidants. Neem Flower In Ayurveda, neem is a well-known herb that is the key player in different traditional remedies. Neem flowers are also used in the treatment of belching, nausea, anorexia, and intestinal worms. Neem flowers are an amazing natural antiseptic that can help in cleansing your system in one of the healthiest ways possible. These flowers are white-yellowish in color and are completely safe for consumption. It is available in dried and powdered form in the offseason, but it is best to consume it fresh. It is also safe for diabetics with a low glycemic index. Tamarind Tamarind is rich in fiber and has no fat content. Studies suggest that eating tamarind daily might actually help in weight reduction since it contains flavonoids and polyphenols. The polyphenolic compounds found in tamarind can prevent Peptic Ulcers. The seeds extracts have anti-inflammatory effects which stabilize blood sugars and reverse the damage of pancreatic tissue which affects people suffering from diabetes. The enzyme present in tamarind alpha amylase is also proven to reduce blood sugar level. Salt Salt has many benefits in the body, including increasing body water conservation and making you less thirsty. It also helps to manage metabolism in a positive way. Salt intake should be 5-6gm/day for a healthy individual rather than taking it in more quantity which is present in the package & processed foods. To conclude we can say ‘A happy and healthy Ugadi/Padwa to all.’
