Can thyroid cancer be cured?

Thyroid disease is no longer a rare disease. Many of our friends have some thyroid problems to some extent. For thyroid cancer, the incidence rate in women is significantly higher than that in men. Generally speaking, women are more likely to develop terrible diseases such as thyroid cancer. The main reason is the estrogen in women's bodies. However, this statement is not entirely correct. The number of male colon cancer patients is higher than that of female patients. So, can thyroid cancer be cured? This is a question that many patients are concerned about.

Can thyroid cancer be cured? The conclusion is that each person's symptoms are different, so whether it can be completely cured depends on each person's condition. Therefore, there is no way to give a clearer answer. Generally speaking, the pathology of thyroid cancer is different, and the treatment effects are also different.

There are four types of thyroid cancer: papillary, follicular, medullary, and anaplastic. The first three are well-differentiated types (the better the differentiation, the closer to normal cells) that grow slowly, and some patients may not even be aware of it throughout their lives and still live a healthy life. Many patients cannot undergo surgical removal because the lesions have locally invaded important structures of the neck, and can only receive conservative treatment with traditional Chinese medicine as the main method and Western medicine as the auxiliary treatment. The average survival time for patients with this type of thyroid cancer is only 6 to 38 months.

Fortunately, the three well-differentiated thyroid cancers mentioned above account for more than 90% of all thyroid cancers, while the highly malignant undifferentiated cancer accounts for only 5%. Overall, thyroid cancer is the malignant tumor with the highest cure rate.

If thyroid cancer has developed to the late stage, the patient can go to a regular hospital for comprehensive treatment, which can prolong the patient's survival period. Cooperate with the doctor's treatment to improve the immune system of patients with advanced thyroid cancer, control the development of the disease, improve the current status of multiple diseases in the body, relieve the patient's pain, and promote appetite.
