In Hong Kong, many women feel anxious upon receiving gynaecological examination reports that mention terms such as "ASCUS" or "CIN," often worrying, "Does this mean I have cervical cancer?"

在香港，膽結石（Gallstones）是非常普遍的都市病。不少人在體檢或因為一次突如其來的「胃痛」求醫後，才驚覺膽囊內藏著幾顆「石頭」。當聽到醫生建議考慮手術時，大多數人的第一反應都是：「一定要切嗎？有沒有不用開刀的方法？」

Ovarian cancer has long been referred to as “the silent killer.” In Hong Kong, it ranks among the top ten most common cancers in women. Its high fatality rate is primarily due to the vague nature of its early symptoms, which resemble everyday gastrointestinal issues and menstrual discomfort.

「肝臟是沉默的器官」，這句話您一定不陌生。它精準地描繪了肝臟的一大特性：內部沒有痛覺神經，即使在發炎、受損的初期，也幾乎不會發出疼痛的警號。然而，正是這種「沉默」，讓許多人對肝臟健康抱持著危險的誤解，輕視了潛在的風險，直到出現黃疸、腹水、嚴重疲倦等症狀時才驚覺不對勁，卻往往已錯過了治療的黃金時機。

Cancers of the uterine body commonly occur in middle-aged and elderly women. More than 90% of them originate from the endometrium (i.e., endometrial cancer), while the rest originate from the myometrium (i.e., malignant uterine sarcoma).

健康肝臟一般只會有少量脂肪或沒有脂肪積聚，如果肝臟積聚了過多三酸甘油脂，可以造成脂肪肝。脂肪肝反映健康狀况不理想，如果沒有適當治療，有機會造成纖維化、肝硬化，甚至肝癌。
