What are the dangers of colorectal cancer during pregnancy

Once a malignant tumor disease such as colorectal cancer occurs, it will seriously affect the patient's health. We must pay attention to colorectal cancer and provide scientific treatment and care in daily life so that the disease can be relieved and cured earlier. So what are the dangers of pregnancy with colorectal cancer? Let me introduce it to you below.

Most young female colorectal cancer patients hope to become mothers, but colorectal cancer patients should not become pregnant before they are cured. Pregnancy will affect the patient's nutrition and physical strength. If the patient still needs intermittent maintenance treatment, chemotherapy drugs have cytotoxic effects on the fetus, causing fetal malformation, miscarriage, and premature birth.

If it has been more than 5 years since the colorectal cancer surgery, and no recurrence or metastasis has been found through various examinations, and the patient has a strong desire to have children, whether or not to get pregnant should be decided by oncology and gynecology experts after consultation. If it does not affect the patient's health and the patient is able to have children, then pregnancy can be considered. However, it is generally better not to get pregnant, so as to avoid disrupting the balance of the endocrine system in the body and disturbing the patient's health.

Pregnancy for patients with colorectal cancer will not only affect the fetus, but also have many health effects on themselves. I hope that patients with colorectal cancer can receive correct treatment and care when they are sick and recover soon.
