What is uterine cancer?

Uterine cancer or Endometrial Uterine Cancer occurs when abnormal cells in the uterus grow uncontrollably. There are two primary types: endometrial cancer, which begins in the lining of the uterus (endometrium) and makes up about 95% of cases, and uterine sarcoma, a rarer form that develops in the muscle tissue (myometrium). Due to its prevalence, uterine cancer is often referred to as endometrial cancer.

In 2023, it is estimated that over 3,300 women were diagnosed with uterine cancer, with the average age at diagnosis being 65 years old.

Our specialists are skilled surgeons who also guide and assist patients during the entire treatment process, i.e., from diagnosing to celebrating their success stories.

 

What are the symptoms of uterine cancer?

The most common symptom of uterine cancer is unusual vaginal bleeding, especially any bleeding after menopause. Other frequent symptoms include heavier than usual periods, changes in menstrual cycles, and vaginal bleeding between periods.

Less common signs and symptoms of uterine cancer may include a watery discharge with an unpleasant odor, unexplained weight loss, difficulty urinating, changes in bowel habits, and abdominal pain.

What are the causes of Uterine Cancer?

Several factors can increase the risk of developing uterine cancer. Being postmenopausal, particularly reaching menopause after age 55, is one such factor. A thickened uterine lining (endometrial hyperplasia), never having children, and starting periods early (before age 12) also raise the risk. Health conditions like high blood pressure or diabetes, and being overweight or obese, are significant contributors. Family history of ovarian, uterine, or bowel cancer, as well as genetic conditions such as Cowden syndrome or Lynch syndrome, can increase susceptibility.
