Overview
Symptoms
Early vaginal cancer does not have any symptoms. As the tumor grows larger, people may notice one or more of the following symptoms:
- Abnormal vaginal bleeding, often after intercourse
- Abnormal vaginal discharge
- A mass that can be felt
- Pain during intercourse
Other health problems may also cause these symptoms. Only a doctor can tell for sure. A person with any of these symptoms should tell the doctor so that the problems can be diagnosed and treated as early as possible.
Diseases with similar symptoms are the following:
- Vaginal cyst
- Vaginal node of endometriosis
- Uterine fibroids
