Vaginal Cancer

Signs & Symptoms

Unfortunately, vaginal cancer in its early stages is asymptomatic. Symptoms occur when the cancer is already advanced. Some of the most common signs of vaginal cancer include:

• Unusual bleeding or abnormal vaginal discharge not related to the period.

• Difficulties or pain during urination.

• Pain during sexual intercourse.

• Constipation.

• Pain within the pelvic area.

• Pain in the back or legs.

• Edema (swelling in the legs).

• The presence of a lump inside the vagina.

However, these can be symptoms or signs of other medical conditions, and women should consult a specialist when the above signs occur. Only a doctor can establish a cancer diagnosis.
