Endometrial Carcinoma
Endometrial carcinoma is a type of cancer that affects the inner lining of the uterus. It is the most common gynecological cancer in North America and is typically diagnosed in postmenopausal women. Endometrial carcinoma is often caused by estrogen imbalance, obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and a history of endometrial abnormal cells. Symptoms may include abnormal vaginal bleeding, pelvic pain, and pain with urination. If left untreated, the cancer can spread to other parts of the body and can be deadly. Treatment options include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, and targeted therapy. Early diagnosis is essential for successful treatment outcome and long-term survival.
