Symptoms
The symptoms of endometrial cancer include abnormal vaginal bleeding or discharge, abdominal pain, pain during intercourse (also known as dyspareunia), and pain, difficulty, or discomfort during urination. Since these symptoms can occur for a variety of other reasons, they often are dismissed, mistaken for symptoms of some other medical problem, or ignored by patients, which can give any cancerous cells a chance to grow extensively before diagnosis. This can be very dangerous for patients, who will have the best chances of recovery if they seek treatment as early as possible.
