Do women die from uterine cancer?

I was wandering if women who have uterine or cervix cancer will eventually die from this diseases or they can control it and live as a normal person? I need some clear info about this , I would be glad if you can help or suggest any website about this. Thansk.

Uterine cancer usually occurs after menopause. Being obese and taking estrogen-alone hormone replacement therapy also increase your risk. Treatment varies depending on your overall health, how advanced the cancer is and whether hormones affect its growth. Treatment is usually a hysterectomy, which is surgery to remove the uterus. Other options include hormone therapy and radiation. And yes you can die from this type of cancer, as with any other cancer.

Yes. Women can die from those types of cancer.

They sure do, unfortunately. That's one reason the vaccine and Pap smears are VERY important.

uterine or cervical cancer are the same as any other cancer. They spread to other parts of the body and if untreated will kill you

yes women die from this everyday if not treated in a timely manner

This is a valid website that can help you find the answers that you are looking for.

yes, my grandmother died from cervical cancer.
if you are of the right age, you should DEFINITELY get the HPV vaccine called Gardasil - it protects against most types of cervical cancers.

yes.

people die from every type of cancer.

Yes, I have a sister-in-law that passed away at 38 years of age from cervical cancer. Her paps kept coming back abnormal but the PPO doctor wouldn't send her to a specialist. By the time she did and had surgery they couldn't do anything.

Yes they can. My nan's cancer started in her uterus and spread. Now she has only weeks or a few months at the most left. All we can do is wait...

moral of the story - have regular pap smears.

Yes they do. But that said the vaccine is not the prevent all. It will only protect against about half of the strains of cancer out there. Pap smears will catch the vast majority in plenty of time to cure it.

YES.
It spreads to other places in the body, this is usually what kills you.

If you're young, talk to a doctor about getting the HPV vaccine.
