Early and timely treatment of uterine cancer can achieve clinical recovery. When we discover this disease during examination, we must choose the correct treatment method as soon as possible under the advice and guidance of the doctor and treat it in time to try to eradicate it; for the treatment of middle and late stage malignant tumors, choose a scientific combined treatment model combined with auxiliary treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, which can effectively control the disease, inhibit metastasis, improve the quality of life and prolong life for a long time.

Treatment methods include surgery and drugs (chemotherapy and hormones). The appropriate treatment plan should be selected and formulated according to the patient's general condition, the extent of cancer involvement and histological type. Surgery is the main treatment for early-stage patients, and adjuvant therapy is selected according to the results of surgical-pathological staging and the presence of high-risk factors for recurrence; in the late stage, comprehensive treatment such as surgery, radiation and drugs is used. Chemotherapy is one of the comprehensive treatment measures for advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer; it can also be used for the treatment of patients with high-risk factors for recurrence after surgery in order to reduce distant metastasis outside the pelvis.
