    des daughter
    I too am a DES daughter.I do not have a GYN cancer at this time BUT I am being followed by a GYN/oncologist because I had a bad pap last year. It was followed by a radical hysterectomy. Currently I am waiting for the results of most recent pap. They are more concerned that I may have vulva cancer. I am being followed closely for that now.

    DES Repeat Cancer
    Im a DES daughter as well as a Navy brat & was born in Ca at a Naval hospital. Had a total hysterectomy about 20 years ago. About 15 years ago, surgery for vulvar cancer. Now Im going in Nov 5th for vaginal cancer. Hopefully it hasnt spread elsewhere, & a partial or total vaginectomy will be enough. Before all of the surgeries occurred, I was told I had mis shaped reproductive organs, as well as a severe case of endometriosis. Both seen in DES daughters. I did manage to have one son, born prematurely, after one miscarriage in the 70s. Looks like I wont be riding my mustang mare for a while.
