Psychosocial Aspecets of Gynecologic Canser
Abstract
Gynecologic cancers are among the major health problems in terms of mortality and morbidity in women all over the world. Loss of reproductive organs after cancer diagnosis and diagnosis can cause some psychosocial reactions due to the special meaning given to the reproductive organs of the woman. Psychosocial aspects of women to gynecological cancers can vary according to the developmental process of cancer, developmental stages of life and cancer types. This review discusses the psychosocial aspects of gynecologic cancers according to cancer development process, developmental life stages and cancer species.
