Risk Factors of Cervical Factors. Please Keep a Watch on these factors before its too late

Cervical cancer is a type of cancer that occurs in the cells of the cervix — the lower part of the uterus that connects to the va**na. Various strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV), a sexually transmitted infection, play a role in causing most cervical cancer.

Getting at least 30 minutes of physical activity each day can make a big difference in your general health and well-being.
Certain viruses have been linked to cancer, but are preventable through vaccination. Talk to your health care professional about the age recommendations for HPV vaccines.
Talk to your health care professional about cancer screening

Smoking has been linked to various types of cancer — including cancer of the lung, mouth, throat, larynx, pancreas, bladder, cervix and kidney. Chewing to***co has been linked to cancer of the oral cavity and pancreas.
Making healthy selections at the grocery store and at mealtime can't guarantee cancer prevention
Maintaining a healthy weight might lower the risk of various types of cancer, including cancer of the breast, prostate, lung, colon and kidney.

Sometimes we take our lungs for granted. They keep us alive and well and for the most part, we don't need to think about them. That's why it is important to prioritize your lung health.

Not only is smoking the leading cause of lung cancer, it is also the reason for the stigma associated with the disease. No one deserves a lung cancer diagnosis

Adult women of all ages are encouraged to perform breast self-exams at least once a month. The best time to do a breast self-exam is a few days after your monthly menstrual cycle ends. Hormonal changes can affect the size and feel of your breasts, so it’s best to perform the exam when your breasts are in their normal state.

Thanks to HCG Foundation who came to rescue my life and covered my entire treatment free of cost. With the best of medical treatment and services, I am on the rapid road to recovery and out of any critical danger.

Manisha – I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer just at the age of 33, when my daughter was just 8 months old. There was a suspected lump and I was operated thrice. Multiple surgeries had already made me stressed and question about my health condition. I was informed from government hospital that this lump needs to be removed immediately, otherwise this would make my health condition worse in the future.

I had taken help from my friends and relatives for my treatment as my husband had already abandoned me. I had no source of income and had to look after my two small kids. At this turning point of life, I approached HCG Hospital wherein I got in touch with HCG Foundation for my free of cost treatment.

Once, again I would like to thank HCG Foundation for all their support and assistance during my difficult phase of life.

Happy Janmashtami !!!

Thanks to HCG Foundation, who came into our life at the critical point of our life to save our son’s life. Today, our son Darshil Ved is completely fine and has started to go to school and do normal activities like other children

Darshil was suffering from a severe form of blood cancer

Back in August 2017, Darshil couldn’t just get rid of the fever and would frequently, fall ill. His stomach would be bloated, and the 3-year-old was extremely feeble. Worried, Ashok got him checked up and on receiving the results of the tests, his wife, Hemlata and his soul were completely crushed.

They got to know that their 3-year-old son was suffering from a severe form of blood cancer known as acute lymphoblastic leukemia. If untreated, this can spread quickly and prove to be fatal in no time. As an immediate measure, Darshil had to start chemotherapy, and he needed additional chemotherapy to survive.
“When I got to know about his condition, I felt that he won’t get the best treatment because I’m so poor. My wife couldn't stop crying. Any mother would cry if she knew that her baby was suffering from a life-threatening condition. “– Ashok

Darshil has had major emotional changes: - Once described as a naughty, playful and adventurous child, at that time, Darshil lost his temper quickly and gets frustrated with his parents and his situation.

Darshil needed additional chemotherapy to survive -The 3-year-old’s only hope for survival was to receive additional chemotherapy for the next 8-10 months and then receive additional treatment if that is successful. Ashok, who didn’t have the money to afford their journey to the hospital, was running out of time to provide for his son’s life-saving treatments.

Ashok can’t even afford the travel expenses -For chemotherapy, along with his family, the 3-year-old had to travel to Ahmedabad in Gujarat from Udaipur in Rajasthan for at least 2-3 times a month. Just the travel expenses for each trip was around Rs. 2500 which was half of Ashok’s monthly salary.
Ashok was in dire need of help - Ashok worked as a barber in Udaipur and earned a meager sum of Rs. 5000 every month. Through this, he provided for his wife, Darshil and his 6-year-old daughter, Priyanshi. He had no savings and for Darshil’s treatments, he had borrowed Rs. 1.5 lakhs on interest from his acquaintances. He had exhausted all his resources and had absolutely nothing left to save his son.

Darshil needed total 5 lakhs for his chemotherapy treatment, and that’s when HCG Foundation stepped in to support his entire treatment free of cost.
