Uterin Cancer

In most cases, uterine cancer occurs when cancerous cells develop in the lining of the uterus. However, there are some rare cases in which the cancerous cells may develop in the muscles or other tissues that support the uterus. Possible symptoms of uterine cancer may include bleeding or discharge that is unrelated to menstruation, pain when urinating, and pain in the pelvic area. In many cases, this type of cancer can be cured using treatment options such as surgery, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, or a combination of treatments.
