Uterine Cancer
Uterine cancer is an abnormal growth in the uterus caused by the abnormal growth of its cells. It is the most common gynecological cancer, affecting mainly women after menopause. Uterine cancer can be treated with surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, or a combination of treatments. Early detection is critical for successful treatment and improved survival rates. Symptoms of uterine cancer may include abnormal vaginal bleeding, a mass or feeling of pressure in the pelvic area, and pain during intercourse. Uterine cancer is one of the most preventable cancers and risk factors can be reduced by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, managing chronic conditions such as diabetes, and discussing any signs or symptoms with a physician.
