Dr. Kristina Butler explains the risk factors, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options for uterine cancer.

Uterine cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting women, yet many people may not recognize its warning signs. In this Cancer Conversations webinar, Mayo Clinic gynecologic oncologist Kristina Butler, M.D., explains uterine cancer risk factors, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment. She discusses the importance of recognizing abnormal bleeding, understanding the difference between a pelvic exam and a Pap test, and seeking medical evaluation when something does not feel right. The conversation also explores: • Hormonal and lifestyle factors that may affect uterine cancer risk • Abnormal bleeding before and after menopause • Ultrasound, biopsy and molecular testing • Robotic surgery, radiation, chemotherapy and targeted therapies • Health disparities affecting underserved communities • Emerging research into at-home cancer detection • Ways patients can advocate for themselves Uterine cancer survivor Sarah Jane also shares her personal experience with an aggressive cancer diagnosis and explains how trusting her instincts and finding a physician who listened helped save her life. This educational discussion encourages viewers to understand their bodies, speak up about persistent symptoms and take an active role in their health.
