I'm medical student in Turkey.And you're like a medicine faculty just by yourself.I have been diagnosed as psychosis 5 years ago and couldn't have focus on lectures due to inattention.But I listen lectures here and it's the best medical source for me.Thank you so much Paul Bolin for your effort. Please send me heart❤️🙏
Hereditary Non-polyposis Colorectal Cancer "HNPCC" aka Lynch Syndrome//I was diagnosed with hnpcc AFTER my EndoCA diagnosis (age 32). Misdiagnosed (no one offered a biopsy) from age 28-32.//1st colonoscopy age 25 due to maternal multi-gen family history of colon cancer. GI never mentioned Lynch.
I have been trying to understand my symptoms since 28.... and now I realize that, AS I SUSPECTED ALL ALONG, I might have endometrial cancer and I have seen multiple doctors, maybe about 10 in different specialties who could not diagnose me-- even with ascites. LOL. I think that we have HNPCC also-- my family has colon cancer and endometriosis and PCOS... and no one connected any dots... they always dismissed my concerns.
A clear discharge without blood can also be an early sign of cancer. Lots of anecdotal evidence. What’s the outcome of adjuvant therapy? How long do pts w chemo live compared to those without?
I’m new here in this group. My 70 year old mum was diagnosed with endometrial cancer back in October and had a full hysterectomy. But did not do the radiation treatment rhe oncologist thought might be beneficial to prevent recurrence. But 5 months later she had some post menopausal bleeding and then just now was diagnosed with mucous mucosal endometrial recurring cancer. The radiologist said she’s optimistic radiation and chemo treatments will help. I asked for a percentage of non recurrence and unfortunately she said under 50 percent. Lymph nodes are involved possibly near kidneys- they’re saying a mri is needed to pin point radIation. Even tho she had a pet scan already. I’m so scared now because I’ve heard horror stories of chemo treatments and I want my mum to live longer than ten years. I’m super stressed because she’s all I have and she has no family in the United States. Has anyone else dealt with this? * I do want to add that they did not give a stage. The radiologist said they believe the lymph nodes might not be benign. The 50 lymph nodes they took out with the hysterectomy did not show any cancer at all. They just think since it’s been 6 months that the pet scan is showing little signs of calcification on lymph nodes outside the vagina and near the kidneys (but sometimes that happens after surgery) - they want to treat it as cancer - to do the radiation.
Thank you....very nicely explained.I have recently been diagnosed with Endometrioid Carcinoma of Uterus and Ovary stage 1 grade 1.Your video was very informative.
Oncosurgeon performed TAH (Total Abdominal Hysterectomy) and BSO (Bilateral Salpingo Oophorectomy)i.e he removed my uterus,fallopian tubes and ovaries.It was a three hour surgery.No chemo needed. I wish you good health and pray to Almighty to bless you with happiness.
Thank you for this...strange to say but as a patient I couldn't get my head around this at all..yet I have listened and watched and followed this perfectly...very grateful for your clear and rational explanation even though its designed for a med student I assume.
Thank you for your helpful information. It seems there is some disagreement about the removal of ovaries and fallopian tubes, especially when the patient has a familiy history of heart disease and or stroke. Please would you be kind enough to elaborate on this. I noticed you only mentioned removing uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes, without the option of keeping the ovaries. I have read that ovarian cancer is rare, and difficult to diagnose.
Hi thk you for your great presentation. I have high grade serous carcinoma uterine cancer I was given Portec 3 treatment. I have Ker2 positive should I ask for Herceptin chemo too. Having breast follow up waiting for appt. Could you let me know about stage 1B with HER2 positive and high grade serous type 2. cancer. Thk you.
What if I am diagnosed with endometrial hyperplasia i’m 57 years old it was measured at 11.2 mm , anyways I stop spotting am I in the clear now I haven’t spotted for three weeks
I had a negative Pap smear last year but around a month ago or two I got a lump on my cervix. It has shrunk but I still feel it. I am so confused but thanks for this long video (lol). Oh I don’t want to have this cancer but I suspect I have it... I want kids one day😞 I would say it’s just a cyst but I can tell something is pushing out my vaginal wall☹️ No pain but it is definitely not normal. Btw if it is a cancer in tissues, couldn’t mom’s cells transfer to her baby if she becomes pregnant before removing everything? Like the kid should be watched especially if female but the cells might go for a boy’s chest🤷🏼♀️ I guess the child would be on a watch list all his or her life...
Gina Chambers Thank you so much for replying! I went to the OB/GYN, she did a vaginal ultrasound I have 3 small fibroid. Lining thickness was normal. She did not do a Pap smear though. I still have a bit of spotting after intercourse. I don’t feel like she was a through as I was hoping and not that concerned . I am due for my Pap smear so will call a make appointment with my primary doctor. Hope all is well with you!
What should my GYN do I am spotting again and very overweight 39 bmi. I have high blood pressure as well. My dad had a fatal cancer in 2017. I have had a biopsy and it was negative and had a D&C and didn't bleed from AUgust 2020 til now December 2020. WHat should I expect him to do now?.

Did you mention the watery pink discharge symptom. I'm shocked at how few GYNs & RNs Do Not know about this symptom
Also clear discharge can be a symptom and they don’t know.
What does the white clear substance means ? Is that a further along stage ?
@@r.williams85 no it's early
GP in my eyes are clueless. I had biopsies waiting for results. They could have missed it last year easily.

I'm preparing for my part 5 exams, and I came across your channel. Thank you for being a light.💕
Success
Dr Bolin you make studying a lot easier and fun with how casual you make these courses seem, more discussion less unilateral spilling of information.

How is your mum doing now?
Thank you....very nicely explained.I have recently been diagnosed with Endometrioid Carcinoma of Uterus and Ovary stage 1 grade 1.Your video was very informative.
I go for a biopsy tomorrow. What did they do for your stage 1? My endometrial lining is 9mm.
I hope everything worked out well for you.

FYI to my GYN friends: a uterine bx hurts like hell. I understand that a lidocaine injection may increase the pain, but why not topical lidocaine?

Dear Paul,
I think you have accidentally deleted your previous video: endometrial hyperplasia.

are stagings for carcinoma FIGO or some other classifications?
thanks once again.

amazing work.....
If someone had an oblation yrs ago and dosen't bleed anymore, what would be the symptoms then of this cancer?
Well if suddenly theres bleeding, that raises suspicion, or adnexal abdominal mass,etc
Thank you very much
I had post menopausal bleeding after not having a period for over 6 yrs. The bleeding lasted just one day but wondering if I should checked?
Gina Chambers Thank you so much for replying! I went to the OB/GYN, she did a vaginal ultrasound I have 3 small fibroid. Lining thickness was normal. She did not do a Pap smear though.

YES DEFINITELY YOU SHOULD CHECK IT
Roxie c.
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT
What should my GYN do I am spotting again and very overweight 39 bmi. I have high blood pressure as well. My dad had a fatal cancer in 2017. I have had a biopsy and it was negative and had a D&C and didn't bleed from AUgust 2020 til now December 2020. WHat should I expect him to do now?.
THANK U SO MUCH
Thanks for you
thanks once again
I'm newly diagnosed with Endometrial adenocarcinoma but I never took supplements. I'm 62. Could it have been because of excess weight?
Yes that is what my Dr told me I just had a full hysterectomy now recovering, good luck...
Thank youuuuuu 💕💕💕
Hey, How can I tell if I have Fibroids or uterus cancer?
I'm black, why do black women have a higher mortality rate?
I read a really good article recently about how doctors dismiss symptoms reported by women of color.
@@barbaravyse660 wtf rly? I read an article many years ago stating that "black = incr. risk factors (like smoking, DM, etc.) = incr. comorbidities = worse outcome in many conditions in general"
A very valid question. My assumption is lack of decent healthcare and funds for specialized therapies. Basically - discrimination.
