Frequently Asked Questions
Uterine cancer begins in the lining (endometrium) or muscle (myometrium) of the uterus. Identifying the origin helps your care team plan the most appropriate treatment.
The stage describes how far cancer has spread. Early-stage cancers may be treated with surgery alone, while advanced stages may require radiation, chemotherapy, or combination therapy.
Tumor grade indicates how abnormal the cells appear under a microscope. Higher-grade tumors tend to grow faster and may need more aggressive treatment.
Lymph nodes removed during surgery are examined for cancer cells. Positive nodes can affect staging and guide further treatment decisions.
Clear margins mean no cancer cells are present at the edges of removed tissue. Positive margins may require additional therapy to reduce the risk of recurrence.
Yes. Testing for estrogen or progesterone receptors can help determine whether hormone therapy may be an effective treatment option.
Molecular testing can identify genetic changes in the tumor, which may help select targeted therapies or enrollment in clinical trials.
Regular follow-up allows your care team to monitor for recurrence, assess treatment response, and provide timely interventions if needed.
