Rapid and unprecedented cell proliferation are characteristics of the condition known as cancer. They have no boundaries and spread to any nearby body sections. Malignant and neoplasms are the two categories of Cancer classification. There are possibilities that any portion of the human body may be affected, and the cancer cells might slowly extend to other nearby organs. Many deaths across the world are being caused by cancer. Among several diseases that affect women, Cancer is considered as a disease with a high global fatality rate. Due to the slowly spreading nature of this illness, women from all social strata, whether urban or rural, are equally impacted.
The human body is composed of trillions of cells, which are basic building units. Every cell has a cycle in which it grows, multiplies, ages and dies. But when there is a change in this orderly process, the abnormal cells start to proliferate, causing undesirable lumps of tissue. This type of lump formation of tissues are called tumors. Tumors can be either malignant or benign. Cancerous tumors that can be fatal are malignant, while other non- cancerous tumors are known as benign. Metastasis is a condition where the cancerous cell travels to other sections of the body to form new tumors. Often malignant tumors are considered life-threatening, while benign tumors once removed usually don't spread again. Leukemia is also a type of Cancer that do not form solid tumors.
Cancer is not caused by a single factor, but multiple factors might result in cancer. Primary causes of cancer reported by scientists are genetic or hereditary conditions, where the patients have a family history. Other factors include environmental factors, exposure to high radiation, viruses, pesticides and other toxins. Risk factors vary for childhood cancer and adult cancer. Similarly, the medication and diagnostic procedure also differs for child and adult. Some of the common and known factors for this disease are active smoking, lack of physical exercise, high fat diet and usage of tobacco products.
Cancer disease goes through four stages. In the first stage, the cancer hasn't significantly grown. In the second stage, the cancer has noticeably grown. The chance of the tumour spreading to other areas exists in the third stage. It would expand to more body organs in the fourth stage. The main types of cancer are Leukemia that is called blood cancer, Sarcoma that damages the connective tissues, Melanoma that damages pigmentation cells and Carcinoma that damages the organs. When the shape of the body proteins are irregular and form lumps with each other, they become Amyloid deposits
