ENDOMETRIAL CANCER

It is a cancer of the womb or uterus. Most uterine cancers start as endometrial cancer. In another type of cancer, uterine sarcoma, the malignancy starts in the muscles and tissues of the uterus. Endometrial cancer and uterine sarcoma are usually treated differently.
• Endometrial cancer affects the female reproductive system.
• Early signs of endometrial cancer include unusual or heavy bleeding and a watery discharge.
• Treatments include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and hormone therapy.
• The chance of surviving longer than 5 years is over 95 percent if diagnosis happens early.
As the disease progresses, there may be:

• a feeling of a mass or heaviness in the pelvic area
• unintended weight loss
• fatigue
• nausea
• pain in several parts of the body, including the legs, back, and pelvic area

REGULAR CHECK UP AND EARLY SCREENING IS MANDATORY.
