5 year+ survivors of endometrial cancer
Are there any 5 year + survivors of endometrial cancer in this group? If so, would you mind replying with your diagnosis and treatment you had completed? I would really appreciate it as it gives many of us hope as we charter these unknown waters....Thank you.
Question about treatment and keeping ovaries
Hi, this is my first time posting and I am glad to have found these boards. One year ago I had my uterus and fallopian tubes removed and found out that I had endometrial cancer, adenocarcinoma, FIGO stage 1. I had 2 D & C's prior to the surgery that came back inconclusive.
