10 Cancer Warning Signs Women Often Overlook

Women tend to associate the symptom of urinating frequently with pregnancy, not cancer. However, a tumor can put pressure on the bladder in the same way fetuses do. If you’re not pregnant or haven’t recently started drinking more liquids, speak to a medical professional. Increased urination is also a common symptom of diabetes, which would require immediate attention. Other symptoms of cancer can resemble those of urinary tract infections, including pain during urination and trouble with emptying the bladder.

Bowel disorder symptoms are more common in women than men, according to a 2018 scientific review, but they should not be confused with signs of cancer. People used to hemorrhoids, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) shouldn’t dismiss their symptoms if there’s a persistent change in their bowel habits (or suddenly a new habit where there used to be none). This can include: constipation, diarrhea, abdominal pain, weakness, tiredness, unexplained weight loss, and thin or bloody stool.
