  • Summary

  • https://bit.ly/gth-endometrial-cancer

    Endometrial cancer results in approximately 60,000 cases per year, primarily in post-menopausal women past the age of 60, though it can take place in younger patients, as we learn from survivor Kristen Foreman here. Sharyn Lewin, MD, Director of Gynecologic Oncology at the Holy Name Medical Regional Cancer Center in Teaneck, New Jersey, educates about what endometrial cancer is, risk factors for it, and treatments available. The most important messages from both Ms. Foreman and Dr. Lewin are:

    1. Listen to your body and advocate for yourself with any unusual bleeding or discharge in between periods or after menopause.
    2. See your gynecologist each year for a check up to catch problems early, even after you finish childbirth.
    3. Understand that obesity, poor lifestyle, and family history of cancers put you at greater risk.
    4. Know that endometrial cancer, while the most common genital cancers among women, is treatable, yet can be deadly if left untreated.
