Endometrial cancer is typically indicated by irregular bleeding, making it detectable in early stages. However, delays in diagnosis are common due to misattribution of symptoms by physicians, inaccurate screening strategies, and inadequate referral pathways.

Endometrial cancer is on track to surpass ovarian cancer as the deadliest gynecologic cancer. The rising incidence of endometrial cancer and related mortality in recent years are fueled by risk factors like obesity, an aging population, treatment trends, and persistent healthcare disparities.
