Patient's question:
I have vaginal bleeding and lower abdominal pain. I went for a check-up and was diagnosed with endometrial cancer. I would like to ask, how should endometrial cancer be treated?Doctor's answer:
Endometrial cancer is a tumor that is sensitive to radiotherapy, and some patients are also sensitive to hormone therapy. Therefore, stage 3 endometrial cancer patients who have undergone radical surgery need to undergo additional local radiotherapy. For patients with positive estrogen and progesterone receptors, endocrine therapy can be performed. It is recommended to undergo local radiotherapy after surgery, as this is an effective means of preventing recurrence and spread. Additionally, if indicated, endocrine therapy can also be administered.In addition to medication during the treatment of endometrial cancer, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also crucial. The patient must maintain a light diet and always keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery from endometrial cancer.
