Is it ok to go tanning when you have an ovarian cyst or cervical cancer?
well...for your sake, I hope the sun can't get to it....
Reply:Are you going for skin cancer too? I'd avoid it.
Reply:Talk to your doctor. I would not go tanning if I had any type of cancer.
Reply:yes it's fine as long as you don't have skin cancer
Reply:No. Tanning (if using UV rays) are inherintly bad for ur skin. If you need to tan, use a spray tan. Many tanning saloon now have spray tans which are safe. High dooze of UV rays can speed up ur cancer especially if its skin related. Even if its not skin related (like ovarian), tanning is bad for it. Dont' fry ur ovaries.. stay away from UV tanning.
Reply:If you want to add skin cancer to your prognosis, go for it. Otherwise, use a tantowel, they are the least-streaky fake tan option out there (in my humble former-beauty-store-employee opinion)
Reply:yes...unless you are having chemo or radiation for the cervical cancer..then it is not ok....and besides..if you already have a cancer, why would you want to risk getting another cancer just so you can look tan? health is more important...forget tanning
Reply:Tanning in itself (UV Rays) is a carcinogen. I don't believe they would affect a current cancer but would certainly lead to new cancerous exposure so I would not risk it. There are a lot of great sunless tanners out there now as well as spray tans!
Reply:Those two medical conditions are in two ballparks. Ovarian cysts do not preclude you from tanning. But always wear sun tan lotion with a high SPF...like maybe 40-45...to prevent skin damage. As for Cervical Cancer, are you on cancer chemoptherapy?. THere are many drugs that you cannot be in the sun's rays due to intensive skin sensitivity. Consult your pharmacist and doctor.
Reply:If you want to risk getting skin cancer
Reply:I know you have heard it before, but I'm gonna say it again. You should never, ever, ever, ever, go tanning. nothing is more harmful to your skin that exposing it to those artificial UV lights. Tanning itself, is a surge of melanin that comes to surface of your skin while you are, for lack of a better term, cooking yourself. Tanning is the bodys response to the damage that you are causing.





Please, for your own sake, stay out of those beds, they really are no good for you. If you are in poor health especially.
Reply:If you have ovarian cyst or cervical cancer do you still have the mood to go tanning? Get yourself treated first, that is top priority.
Reply:What do you want skin cancer too? Be happy with the color skin that you have-it is part of being you!
Reply:It seems that you would want to concentrate all your efforts on not dying if you have cancer, so I question whether this is a joke or not. Just in case it's not a joke, here's a little different take on cancer treatment--





In 1990, I had Hodgkin's Lymphoma, stage 3-B, but I've survived. My doctors were great people, but they really couldn't tell me squat about cancer. During the year in treatment, I started learning about alternative medicine.





Here's what I've figured out--FIRST, somebody--probably sympathetic to the AMA--is getting my answers deleted as 'not a question or an answer', because they don't want you to know about this. So if you want to keep this information, you need to copy it to a wordpad document quickly, before it disappears. Hopefully, they'll give up and stop that nonsense soon, but I wouldn't count on it. Now, here goes--





Poor nutrition, a sedentary lifestyle and reduced oxygen weaken the immune system. Once that happens, our body becomes vulnerable to common stressors. Stressors can be environmental, like viruses, heavy metals, pesticides, food additives, electromagnetic waves or pollution. They can be internal things like emotional or job stress, or poisonous people in our lives. And aging is also a contributing factor.





[weak immune system] + [stressors] = MAJOR ILLNESS (cancer, diabetes, heart disease, etc.)





Our bodies have 60 trillion--yes, trillion--cells, and there are always some mutating into cancer cells, but a healthy immune system kills them before they have a chance to get a foothold in the body.


It takes a LONG time, usually, or an exrtaordinary amount of stressors, to degrade the immune system to the point where it won't do its job, but once cancer has formed, it will generally spread rapidly.








THIS IS IMPORTANT! There are ways to BEAT cancer that the AMA is keeping from the American public, that are currently being used in Europe and around the world! Here are some great books on the subject. Some are getting hard to find--

I know of people whose cancer has 'spontaneously remitted' (WENT AWAY for no known reason) after they went on programs of herbs and nutrition that restart our immune systems.





The American Medical Association (AMA) and the pharmaceutical companies control medical law and the FDA in this country with heavy lobbying and a revolving door policy. WHY would they want to do this? It's about the money. In 2004, medicine (doctors, hospitals, researchers and pharmaceutical firms) received 1.1 TRILLION dollars--1/4th of the total earnings (GNP 4.4 trillion) in the U.S. This is astounding, because it's like 1/4th of our citizens--about 75 MILLION people--worked the whole year just to pay the nation's medical expenses!!





That's just too big to care about individuals. You and your family must look out for yourselves to stand a chance of being healthy. This is not a joke, and I'm not selling anything--just trying to help. There is MUCH that cancer victims can do about it. Best of luck
