I was diagonised with vulva cancer and operated on 25 October 2011, I also had lymph nodes in right and left groin removed.  Luckily cancer hadnt spread so didnt need any further treatment.  However, i have started itching again and have had no periods for last eight weeks.  What if its back????  How do they test if it has returned. 

Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Hi Lisa.How long have you been itching? I dont know whether it could be due to the healing process.I looked up Vulvar cancer in google and it didnt mention periods at all.That could be due to worry.Maybe see your GP for reassurance.When are you due to see your oncologist next? Take care.HUGS xxx
