In order to choose the most appropriate treatment for you, your cancer must be correctly diagnosed.
To determine whether you have endometrial cancer, your gynecologist will do a pelvic exam and may ask that you have a transvaginal ultrasound. This test uses sound waves to image the uterus. If it appears that endometrial cancer may be present, a small sample of your uterine lining will need to be examined under a microscope, to see if cancer cells are present. This biopsy may be done in your gynecologist's office, or in an outpatient operation that usually takes about an hour.
