Uterine Cancer FAQs
If you’ve recently been diagnosed with uterine cancer, you likely have a number of questions. Should you see another physician and get a second opinion? Should you get started immediately with treatment, and if so, what are your options? How should you tell your family and friends? What are clinical trials, and should you consider participating in one?
At Moffitt Cancer Center, we understand how challenging – and uncertain – this time can be. While we encourage you to talk with a specialist who can provide information that’s tailored to your specific situation, the uterine cancer information provided below can help you learn more about your diagnosis and what you can expect.
