How often should women with high risk for recurrence receive PET/CT or other scans? Why are some doctors not prescribing them?

Besides diet, exercise and regular gyn exams, is there advice or a protocol for post-treatment patients who are high risk that may help to prevent a recurrence?

Why isn't maintenance medication automatically prescribed after first occurance of grade 3 endometrial cancer? Rather than just after a recurrence?

I wonder the same thing! Why hasn’t there been research to test the possibility of maintenance medications extending our survival - or even curing us?

Not what you're looking for?
