Hello and thank you for your post,
I am sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with endometrial cancer, it sounds like you could have received a letter about it.
Hopefully you will also have had or will have soon an appointment to discuss this further. It looks like from other posts you have had or will be having scans. So once all the results are known your specialist gynaecology team will get together to plan your treatment and let you know what it is.
Often surgery is used and if the cancer has not spread there is a very good chance of being cured, however you may need further treatment after surgery to achieve this. We have information on our website about endometrial cancer, how it is diagnosed and treated, you can see it here
I hope you have some support and at this difficult time for you. Please get back to us if you need any more information or support. You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.
Take care,
Caroline
