Finding uterine cancer early
When uterine cancer is found and treated early, the chances of successful treatment are better. Get regular health checkups and see your doctor if you have any symptoms or are worried about your health.
If you have a higher than average risk due to a genetic condition or precancerous condition, you may need to visit your doctor more often to check for uterine cancer. Talk to your doctor about tests that can help find uterine cancer early, including the following:
- a biopsy of the inner lining of the uterus (called the endometrium)
- a transvaginal ultrasound
