Cancer In Pregnancy

Since cancer rarely occurs in pregnancy, the suspicion of cancer is even smaller. However, typical pregnancy symptoms and physiological changes associated with pregnancy make it even more difficult to diagnose cancer in pregnant women. When doubt is justified and supported by physical findings, there is still doubt about the proper use of diagnostic tests. It is devastating for everyone to be diagnosed with cancer, but it is especially devastating for a pregnant woman to have to worry not only about herself but also about the safety of her baby. The most common cancers in women are breast cancer, lung cancer, colon cancer, uterine cancer, thyroid cancer, and lymphoma. When cancer is detected in pregnancy, maternal health must be considered, and fetal prognosis becomes increasingly important.
