Treatments for Cancer of the Uterus

Early diagnosis of cancer of the uterus is common and in most cases is identified and treated before the cancer has spread. This means that for a large proportion of women, surgery may be all that is required to cure the cancer. The major side effect of the surgery is that women can no longer have children and it induces menopause. (Source: Uterine cancer: treatments [myDr] )
