Endometrial/Uterine Cancer

Endometrial cancer, also known as uterine cancer, begins in the lining of the uterus (endometrium). It is a common type of cancer in women, often diagnosed at an early stage due to abnormal vaginal bleeding. Risk factors include obesity, hormone imbalances, and age. Symptoms can include pelvic pain and changes in menstrual cycles. Diagnosis typically involves imaging tests and a biopsy. Treatment may involve surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, or hormonal therapy, depending on the cancer stage and individual health. Early detection is crucial for better outcomes, so regular check-ups are important for women's health.
