A member asked:

What are the main reasons why some women over the age of 75 are unable to cure satge 1or2 vaginal cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It is important for the person to go for treatment as soon as possible, because the stages are still treatable. The immunity wanes with aging and that may reduce the ability of the immune cells of the body to overcome cancer without additional medical intervention.
