severeendometriosis.treatment: What's new?

Hello everyone,

I wanted to raise awareness and share valuable insights into the treatment of vaginal and vulvar cancers, which are rarer but equally serious forms of gynecological cancer. I had a family member diagnosed with vulvar cancer, and we were fortunate to be treated by Dr. Nazish Khalid, a specialist in women’s cancers with a strong focus on these less common types.

Vaginal and vulvar cancers often go undiagnosed until advanced stages because symptoms can be mistaken for infections or skin conditions. Symptoms like itching, bleeding, pain, or changes in skin appearance in the genital area shouldn’t be ignored.

Here’s how Dr. Khalid typically manages these cancers:

🔹 Vulvar Cancer:

For early-stage cases, she performs wide local excision or radical vulvectomy, depending on tumor size and location.

She carefully evaluates lymph node involvement through sentinel node biopsy or lymphadenectomy to prevent unnecessary spread.

Reconstruction and post-surgical care are handled with incredible attention to both healing and preserving quality of life.

For advanced cases, she uses radiation and chemotherapy, tailored to the patient’s overall health.

🔹 Vaginal Cancer:

She starts with biopsy and imaging (MRI/CT) to understand tumor depth and spread.

Treatments include radiation therapy (external and internal/brachytherapy), and in some cases, surgery.

Dr. Khalid often works with a multidisciplinary team to ensure coordinated care for complex cases.

What I appreciated most was Dr. Khalid’s gentle and respectful approach, especially considering how sensitive these cancers can be both physically and emotionally. She also provides thorough education for caregivers and connects patients with support services when needed.

Recovery wasn’t just about the physical—she ensured regular counseling, support groups, and close monitoring post-treatment. My family member is doing well today, and I credit Dr. Khalid’s early intervention, surgical skill, and compassionate care for that.

If you or someone you know is facing a diagnosis of vaginal or vulvar cancer, don’t delay reaching out to a specialist like Dr. Nazish Khalid. Early detection and expert guidance truly make a difference.

Wishing strength and health to all here 💜 Feel free to reach out if you want to know more about our treatment journey.
