Uterine cancer is primarily classified into two main types:

1. Endometrial Cancer

• Origin: Lining of the uterus (endometrium).

• Subtypes:

• Endometrioid Adenocarcinoma: Most common, linked to excess estrogen.

• Serous Carcinoma: Aggressive and fast-spreading.

• Clear Cell Carcinoma: Rare, with a poor prognosis.

2. Uterine Sarcoma

• Origin: Muscle or connective tissues of the uterus.

• Subtypes:

• Leiomyosarcoma: In the uterine muscle.

• Endometrial Stromal Sarcoma: In the connective tissue.

• Carcinosarcoma: Contains both carcinoma and sarcoma components.

Risk Factors

• Hormonal imbalance (excess estrogen).

• Age (postmenopausal women).

• Obesity.

• Genetic predispositions (e.g., Lynch syndrome).

• Diabetes, tamoxifen use, previous pelvic radiation.

Symptoms

• Abnormal vaginal bleeding/discharge.

• Pelvic pain or pressure.

• Unexplained weight loss.

• Pain during intercourse or urination.

Diagnosis

• Pelvic examination.

• Transvaginal ultrasound.

• Biopsy for confirmation.

Treatment often involves surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and hormone therapy depending on the type and stage of cancer.
