About this booklet

The booklet explains the signs and symptoms of vulval cancer, how it is diagnosed, and how it may be treated. It also has information about the emotional, practical and financial issues.

 

We want everyone affected by cancer to feel our information is written for them. To do this we use plain English and we try to make it accessible and relevant to the widest range of people. Read more about how we produce our information.
