There are several types of gynecologic cancers, including ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, and endometrial cancer. The specific type of cancer you have been diagnosed with will determine the type of treatment you will need.
Should you get a second opinion on your cancer diagnosis? Some patients might be more comfortable with seeking a second opinion before they begin a treatment plan for their gynecologic cancer.
Most gynecologic cancer patients are going to need some help, and that's ok! It's important to share experiences with others who are facing the same. We give access to many cancer support programs.
Often times your first appointment with your oncologist will not be when your treatment plan gets decided. However, it is the appointment that sets the rest of your care in motion.
