Endometrial cancer Endometrial cancer. Endometrial cancer is a cancer that arises from the endometrium (the lining of the uterus or womb). It is the result of the abnormal growth of cells that have the ability to invade or spread to other parts of the body. The first sign is most often vaginal bleeding not associated with a menstrual period.

- Endometrial Cancer Symptoms and Risk Factors. Endometrial cancer (uterine cancer) is the most common gynecologic cancer that occurs in the United States; and arises from abnormal cells that develop within the inside lining of the uterus. It occurs most often after menopause, but may also be diagnosed before menopause.

Endometrial Ablation Endometrial ablation facts. Endometrial ablation is the surgical destruction of the lining tissues of the uterus. Endometrial ablation is one type of treatment for abnormal uterine bleeding that is due to a benign (non-cancerous) condition.

- Endometriosis (say en-doh-mee-tree-OH-sus) is a problem many women have during their childbearing years. It means that a type of tissue that lines your uterus is also growing outside your uterus. This does not always cause symptoms.

Uterine (Endometrial) Cancer Uterine (endometrial) cancer is the most common cancer of the female reproductive system, with more than 49,500 Americans diagnosed with the disease each year. It tends to develop after menopause, when a woman is between the ages of 50 and 60. The uterus is a hollow, pear-shaped organ in a woman’s pelvis in which a fetus grows after conception.

Uterus If the egg is fertilized, it attaches to the thick endometrial wall of the uterus and begins developing. If the egg is unfertilized, the endometrial wall sheds its outer layer of cells; the egg and excess tissue are then passed from the body during menstrual bleeding (see menstruation).

Endometrial: The Most Common Reproductive Cancer in Women Everything you should know, from symptoms to risk factors to treatment, about the uterine cancer that claims thousands every year. The most common form of cancer of the female reproductive tract in the United States is endometrial carcinoma -- cancer of the lining of the uterus, or endometrium. Endometrial cancer accounts for over 95 percent of uterine cancers, which themselves represented approximately six percent of all cancers diagnosed among U.S. women in 2010.

Endometrial Cancer Endometrial cancer is cancer that starts in the endometrium, or inner lining of the uterus (the hollow, pear-shaped organ that is part of your reproductive system). It is sometimes also referred to as uterine cancer. Endometrial cancer usually occurs after natural menopause, with 60 being the average age at diagnosis.

Endometriosis In endometriosis, functioning endometrial tissue is implanted in the pelvis outside the uterine cavity. Symptoms depend on location of the implants and may include dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, infertility, dysuria, and pain during defecation. Severity of symptoms is not related to disease stage.

Overview Endometrial cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the uterus. The uterus is the hollow, pear-shaped pelvic organ in women where fetal development occurs. Endometrial cancer begins in the layer of cells that form the lining (endometrium) of the uterus. Endometrial cancer is sometimes called uterine cancer. Other types of cancer can form in the uterus, including uterine sarcoma, but they are much less common than endometrial cancer.

Endometrial Hyperplasia Endometrial hyperplasia is a thickening in the lining of the womb due to excess cell growth. To be exact, it is defined by an abnormal growth of endometrial and stromal cells which some experts believe is a pre-cancerous condition or precursor to endometrial cancer (uterine/womb cancer).

Endometrial polyps Endometrial polyps. Endometrium is the lining of the inside of the womb (uterus). Overgrowth of this lining can create polyps. Polyps are fingerlike growths that attach to the wall of the uterus. They can be as small as a sesame seed or larger than a golf ball. There may be just one or many polyps.

Overview Endometrial ablation is a procedure that surgically destroys (ablates) the lining of your uterus (endometrium). The goal of endometrial ablation is to reduce menstrual flow. In some women, menstrual flow may stop completely. No incisions are needed for endometrial ablation. Your doctor inserts slender tools through the passageway between your vagina and uterus (cervix). The tools vary, depending on the method used to ablate the endometrium. They might include extreme cold, heated fluids, microwave energy or high-energy radiofrequencies.

- Endometritis is an inflammatory condition of the the lining of the uterus, and it’s usually due to an infection. The uterus, or womb, is a major reproductive organ in women.

Endometrium The endometrium is the inner mucous membrane of the uterus and consists of endometrial glands and endometrial stroma. It functions as a lining for the uterus, preventing adhesions between the opposed walls of the myometrium, thereby maintaining the patency of the uterine cavity.

- If the amount of work done is measurable (i.e., Joules, Kgm etc.) and oxygen consumption is determined, it is possible to determine how much of the energy released results in the production of useful work. Mechanical efficiency is the percentage of energy released that results in work.

- Endometriosis is a noncancerous condition that affects about 5 percent of reproductive-age women. About 5 million women in the United States have been diagnosed with endometriosis. Endometriosis develops when cells similar to the endometrium—or uterine lining—grow outside the uterus and stick to other structures, most commonly the ovaries, bowel, fallopian tubes or bladder.

Endometrium The endometrium is the inner epithelial layer, along with its mucous membrane, of the mammalian uterus. It has a basal layer and a functional layer; the functional layer thickens and then is sloughed during the menstrual cycle or estrous cycle. During pregnancy, the glands and blood vessels in the endometrium further increase in size and number.
