What Treatment Options are Available for Uterine Cancer?
Most women who have been diagnosed with uterine cancer will have surgery. A hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) is generally the first course of treatment; during this procedure the ovaries are typically removed as well. During the hysterectomy, lymph nodes will most likely also be removed so that tests can be administered to see if and where the cancer has spread. Depending on the stage of the cancer, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and/or hormonal therapy will be recommended.
