8. Changes to the skin
This can include yellowed eyes and fingertips, otherwise known as jaundice, or moles that have irregular borders, inconsistent or changing colors, growing in size, or an asymmetrical look. If you have a mole that gets larger than a pencil eraser or changes over time in any way, get it checked out. Changes beneath the skin, such as new lumps or masses, should also be noted.
9. Bruising
If you’re repeatedly getting tender bruising, it may be the result of a medication you’re on or issues with blood clotting, but in some cases, it can be a sign of certain blood cancers, especially if it’s happening often in unusual places and you don’t recall bumping into anything.
10. Post-menopausal uterine bleeding
If you’re experiencing abnormal bleeding even after you’ve experienced menopause and haven’t gotten a period in years, it could mean endometrial cancer. Although perimenopausal women can occasionally get their periods until they fully enter menopause, if you haven’t had it in a couple of years and bleeding starts showing up, it’s important to see a specialist.
