Endometrial cancer is a type of cancer that starts in the lining of the uterus, known as the endometrium. It's one of the most common gynecological cancers.

Symptoms can include abnormal vaginal bleeding (such as bleeding between periods or after menopause), pelvic pain, and sometimes a watery or blood-tinged discharge. Risk factors for endometrial cancer include obesity, hormonal imbalances, and a history of certain health conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure.

Treatment usually involves surgery to remove the uterus (hysterectomy) and may also include radiation, chemotherapy, or hormone therapy, depending on the stage and type of cancer. Early detection is crucial for better outcomes, so it’s important to consult a healthcare provider if you have symptoms or concerns.
