Womb cancer

Hey 

so today I got my world tipped upside down and at 28 got told I have womb cancer and have to make a choice weather to have a hysterectomy or not. 
i have a lot of close friend and a very supportive girlfriend but none of them have ever had to make this choice so find it hard to help with *** I should do next so I'm just looking for some advice from anyone who has had the coil fitted or had a hysterectomy to try and get some more information to help me make up my mind

  • Hello Mel1991

    Welcome to the forum although I'm sorry to hear that you've been given this news. It's understandably a confusing and difficult time for you at the moment. I'm glad to hear that you've a support partner and friends.

    Surgery is the main treatment for early stage womb cancer and you can find out more information about this here. It's worth making a list of your concerns and questions so that you can discuss these with the Consultant at your next appointment. 

    If you think it would help to talk things through with one of our team of nurses then you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040 (Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm). 
    Best wishes,
