OF THE
WOMB
its Symptoms and Progress and its
New Treatment

to introduce His Methods.

Cancer of the womb is one of the
most fatal diseases from which
countless women die, simply because
it is not diagnosed in time. If rec
ognized in time it is as durable as
other forms of cancer. There are
two forms: Cancer of the body OF
the womb, which is a comparatively
rare disease, and cancer of the neck
and mouth of the womb, which is
very frequent.
Cancer of the neck and mouth Of
the womb usually appears about the
time of change of life. The bloody
discharge which is one of the first
symptoms is frequently mistaken for
reappearance of the monthly flow.
Later on severe pains call the atten-
ton of the patient to her womb,
while the extremely ill smelling dis
charge that appears in the later
stages finally induces the woman to
seek medical help. While in the first
stages there appears at the mouth Of
the womb caulifower like growth
which bleeds at the slightest touch;
in the later stages this becomes ne
crotic and liberated away causing
the ill smelling discharge, and a
large liberation eating deep into the
womb and often into the bladder and
rectum, causing horrible death.
While usually cancer of the womb
appears after the middle of life,
cases are known where it appeared
far earlier. DR.. Toel having seen
well defined case in woman of only
27 years.
In most cases of cancer of the
womb all kinds of patent suppositor-
les and ointment are used for long
time, the cancer meanwhile growing
on undisturbed. Later on physic-
ian may be called in who may pos
sibly apply caustics. Later on a sur
geon may be seem who will advise
cutting out the cancerous growth
from the womb or cutting out the
entire womb.
The caustic applications have the
danger of all such remedies of irri-
tating the cancer germs and cells and
driving them into the lymphatic
glands, thus starting new cancers.
Aside of this the long continued
pain, hours or days, is often unbear-
able. The cutting operations have
the danger of inoculating the fresh
cut surfaces with cancer germs and
cells and in addition surgical shock
and loss of blood combined with the
danger of blood poisoning hard to
avoid in such locality. Aside of
this the woman is unsexed if the en-
tire womb is removed.
DIR. Toel has for many years given
up the use of the knife or scissors in
cases of cancer of the womb for he
soon found out that electricity gave
him far better results.
When there is caulifower
growth this can be quickly removed
with the low voltage current opera
ton without the loss of a single
drop of blood and with so little pain
that the use of ether or chloroform
is not necessary. In cancerous ul-
cerations these are destroyed with
the very high voltage current, while
when these extend into the vagina
he uses a new method invented by
himself with alternating medium
voltage.
A great many patients have thus
been cured that would have little
show under caustics and knife opera
tions.
Every woman that notices bloody
discharge aside of the time of her
monthly flow, or an ill smelling mat
terry or watery discharge should con-
suit specialist right away.
DIR. Toel has for 30 years made
speciality of electrical operations and
treatments.

paste them in scrap book as they
may come handy at any time.
DR.. Toel believes it his duty to
give his patients always the use of
the best apparatus when treating
them and he does not look at the ex-
pense but gets it.
His office is now fitted out with as
fine apparatus and instruments as
will buy.
