Chemotherapy is a type of treatment where medicine with powerful chemicals is used to destroy fast-growing cells in the body. It is usually used to treat cancer because cancer cells can grow and multiply faster than most other cells within the body. While it is not a singularly defined service, it generally involves a series of treatments administered in cycles over a period of weeks or months, with rest periods in between.Â
Chemotherapy may be used in a variety of settings for people with cancer, including:
-
As the primary treatment for cancer (alone without other types of treatments).
-
In combination with other therapies, such as radiation, surgery, or hormone therapy.Â
-
After other types of cancer treatments, such as surgery, to kill hidden cancer cells that may remain in the body. This is called adjuvant therapy.Â
-
To prepare your body for other treatments, such as surgery and radiation, by shrinking a tumor. This is called neoadjuvant therapy.
-
To help relieve symptoms of cancer by destroying some of the cancer cells. This is called palliative chemotherapy.
Besides treating cancer, some chemotherapy drugs can be used to treat other conditions, such as immune system disorders and bone marrow diseases.
What's the Recovery Time for Chemotherapy Procedures?
The recovery time for Chemotherapy can vary widely depending on the specific type of chemotherapy, the overall health of the patient, and the individual's response to treatment. Some people might feel well enough to return to their normal activities right away, while others may need weeks or months to recover. It is best that you ask your employer if you can work fewer hours, work from home, or adjust your schedule when you have cancer treatment.
It's important to understand that the side effects of chemotherapy can be considerable, and managing these effects is an essential part of the recovery process. Side effects can include fatigue, nausea, hair loss, and an increased risk of infection, among others.
What's the Success Rate of Chemotherapy Procedures?
The efficacy of chemotherapy hinges on a myriad of factors that include the site, nature, and progression phase of your cancer. Your age, general health condition, and any pre-existing health issues also contribute to the success of the procedure. In certain cases, the Chemotherapy can be remarkably successful in eradicating cancer. Some patients may find it helpful for alleviating symptoms, stalling disease progress, and boosting their life quality.
