What is Preventive Oncology?

Preventive oncology is a branch of medicine that focuses on preventing the occurrence or recurrence of cancer. It involves a combination of lifestyle changes, screenings, and early detection strategies to reduce your risk of developing cancer.

Lifestyle Changes for Cancer Prevention

  • Healthy Diet: Consume a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Limit processed foods, red meat, and sugary drinks.
  • Regular Exercise: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week.
  • Maintain a Healthy Weight: Obesity increases the risk of several cancers.
  • Limit Alcohol Consumption: Excessive alcohol intake can increase the risk of certain cancers.
  • Quit Smoking: Smoking is a major risk factor for many cancers.
  • Protect Your Skin: Use sunscreen with a high SPF and limit sun exposure, especially during peak hours.

    • Precautions

  • Genetic Testing: For individuals with a family history of cancer, genetic testing can help identify at-risk genes and inform preventive measures.
  • Vaccines: Certain vaccines, such as the HPV vaccine, can help prevent specific types of cancer.
  • Regular Check-ups: Schedule regular check-ups with your healthcare provider to discuss preventive measures and address any concerns.

    Treatment of PCOS

    The treatment for PCOS depends on your specific symptoms and goals. Common treatment options include:

  • Lifestyle changes: Healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management can help improve symptoms.
  • Medications: Hormonal medications, such as birth control pills or metformin, may be prescribed to regulate hormones and address insulin resistance.
