(Uterine Cancer Incidence Rates* by Race and Ethnicity, U.S., 1999–2012.)
Genetic Link
The 3rd chromosome on the MLH1 gene is the one gene that, when affected, causes uterine cancer ("MLH1 Gene."). In a women's lifetime, there is a 1 in 40 chance of getting uterine cancer (Collins).
How does Uterine Cancer progress?
Treatments!
- Surgery to remove the diseased parts.
- Radiation therapy.
- Gene therapy.
- Chemotherapy.
You can't change the fact that you have had cancer. What you can change is how you live the rest of your life. You need to start making good choices, healthier choices for the greater good and for yourself. Here are some things you need to do:
- Exercise (Try to run a bit each day or every other day. Running cuts out fats, and is good cardio.) For some people, fatigue lasts a long time after treatment, and can make it hard for them to exercise and do other things they want to do. But exercise can help reduce fatigue. ("Lifestyle Changes after Treatment for Endometrial Cancer." )
- Eat healthier. (An apple a day keeps the doctors away!) One of the best things you can do after cancer treatment is start healthy eating habits. You may be surprised at the long-term benefits of some simple changes, like increasing the variety of healthy foods you eat. ("Lifestyle Changes after Treatment for Endometrial Cancer." )
- If you smoke and drink, quit. You shouldn't be taking tobacco after you get over cancer. Even things like keeping your stress level under control may help. Now is a good time to think about making changes that can have positive effects for the rest of your life. You will feel better and you will also be healthier. ("Lifestyle Changes after Treatment for Endometrial Cancer." )
- Sleep and stay off stress. (Post cancer, cancer patients usually have mood swings and big cases of fatigue. If you are very tired, you will need to balance activity with rest. It is OK to rest when you need to. Sometimes it's really hard for people to allow themselves to rest when they are used to working all day or taking care of a household. ("Lifestyle Changes after Treatment for Endometrial Cancer." )
- Some support groups are counseling and community programs.
Foundation for Women's Cancer
"The mission of the Foundation for Women’s Cancer Allied Support Group is to facilitate synergy between organizations who share the goals of the gynecologic cancer prevention, early detection, and optimal the care of women living with these malignancies" ("Mission Statement.").
The Mary Kay Foundation
"Mary Kay Inc. is the major corporate sponsor of The Mary Kay Foundation. Because of the Company's generous support, more than 97 percent of dollars donated by supporters like you can go directly to programs and research. Less than three percent goes to administrative and overhead costs"("Resources & Information.").

Why should you support curing Uterine Cancer?
Discussion Questions
2. Is there anyone that you know affected by Uterine Cancer?
3. Did learning more about this type of cancer affect your outlook on cancer in general?
4. What are the benefits and risks of the possible treatments?
5. What are the possible side effects of the treatment options?
