Health - Spiral or intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD) provides a bright hope for women. Based on preliminary findings, the IUD can deliver a number of hormones into the uterus and slow or inhibit the development of cervical cancer.
One researcher, Lucas Minig from the European Institute of Oncology in Milan, said the finding could be developed on an international scale. Thus, young women affected by the disease get the time to get a descent before undergoing total hysterectomy as a healing step.
Hysterectomy eliminates the chance of women getting descent. Giving oral hormone therapy is to slow the progression of cancer, but cause side effects, such as skin problems, nausea, and vomiting.
Hormone delivery directly to problem areas by using the spiral it eliminates the side effects. The first clinical trial involving 39 women aged 20-40 years with early-stage cervical cancer. Each woman fitted with an IUD that is stable stream resembles the hormone progesterone to stop cancer growth.
They also get injectable gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) once a month for six months. Therapy was carried out one year. If the cancer does not grow anymore, performed a hysterectomy.
For those who still want a descent, they were given a chance first before surgery. As a result, all patients were alive and healthy. Nine of them have successful offspring.
