Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecologic cancer in the United States and the fourth most common cancer affecting women. One of its most important warning signs – abnormal vaginal bleeding or spotting – is something many women experience and may dismiss. While survival rates exceed 95%, both overall incidence and mortality rates are rising. In this episode, we speak with Ursula A. Matulonis, MD, chief of the Division of Gynecologic Oncology at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, about the symptoms of endometrial cancer, the role family history plays in risk, and the lifestyle habits that may help lower your chances of developing the disease.

Menopause is not just “hot flashes”—it is a systemic hormonal shift that affects almost every organ system. For the emergency clinician, recognizing the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause is crucial for expanding the differential diagnosis once life-threatening conditions are ruled out. Dr. Pam Dyne joins us for a crash course on evaluating menopausal and perimenopausal patients in the ED. The “Why”: Why Menopause Matters in the ED The Mimic: Menopausal symptoms can mimic emergencies, including cardiac events, neurologic issues, and acute musculoskeletal injuries. The “Nothing Bad” Trap: After a negative workup (e.g., for chest pain or abdominal pain), telling a patient “everything is normal” often leaves them without answers. Identifying menopause as a potential etiology provides patient-centered closure and a path to treatment. Empowerment: Many medical providers are insufficiently trained when it come to menopause – ED clinicians can help patients advocate for themselves. Physiology Refresher: When the Ovaries Retire The Signal: Prior to menopause, the brain sends FSH/LH to the ovaries, and the ovaries answer with estrogen. The Shift: In menopause, the ovaries “retire.” The brain keeps shouting (higher FSH levels), but the ovaries don't respond. Perimenopause: Hormones fluctuate wildly, cycles become irregular, and symptoms are often at their peak due to inconsistency. Hormone Therapy (MHT): Debunking the Myths A major barrier to treatment is the “mass hysteria” caused by the 2002 Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study. The Correction: Modern re-analysis shows that for healthy females under 60 and within 10 years of menopause, hormone therapy is extremely safe. (There are some exceptions, including females at high risk for certain cancers) The Benefits: It has been shown to reduce all-cause mortality by 30% and has many potential health benefits, including lower the risk of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and osteoporotic fractures. The Difficult Pelvic Exam: ED “Hacks” Examining older female patients can be challenging for myriad reasons, including physical limitations and lack of proper ED pelvic exam gurneys. The Upside-Down Speculum: If you can’t use stirrups, keep the patient flat on the bed. Turn the speculum upside down (handle facing up) so it doesn’t hit the gurney. Tip: Push down on the handle; don’t pull up like a laryngoscope. Lateral Decubitus: Perform the exam with the patient on their side (top leg held up) if they cannot flex their hips. Comfort: Use liberal lubrication and consider topical lidocaine gel. The “Hidden” Problem: Always check for old/forgotten pessaries or fecal impaction in cases of pelvic pain or recurrent UTIs. Clinical Pearls: Specific Presentations 1. Post-Menopausal Bleeding Rule: Cancer until proven otherwise. Workup: Speculum exam (confirm source) + Ultrasound (measure endometrial thickness) + Endometrial biopsy (usually outpatient). 2. Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM) Symptoms: Vaginal dryness, thinning tissue, pH changes, and recurrent UTIs (≥3 culture-proven UTIs in 12 months or ≥2 in 6 months). ED Treatment: ED docs can and should prescribe vaginal estrogen cream. It is not absorbed systemically and is highly effective at preventing future UTIs. 3. Pelvic Organ Prolapse Types: Cystocele (bladder), Rectocele (rectum), or Uterine prolapse. Exam Tip: Symptoms are often gravity-dependent. If you don’t see the bulge while the patient is supine, ask them to bear down. 4. Musculoskeletal (MSK) Syndrome of Menopause Presentation: atraumatic joint pain, tendinopathies. Cause: Estrogen receptors are located throughout the MSK system; loss of estrogen leads to inflammation and ligamentous changes. Key Takeaways for the ED Clinician Keep menopause on your differential: Don't dismiss vague aches, mood changes, or urinary issues in women aged 45–60 as “just stress.” Look at the Problem: If a patient has pelvic pain or bleeding, do the exam. You might find a simple fix, like a forgotten pessary or local atrophy. Connect to Care: If you suspect menopause is the culprit, point them toward menopause.org to find a certified practitioner.

Send us a textWelcome to the November Q&A! Today, we start with a topic that always stirs strong feelings—birth partners. From the gestures that truly helped to the ones that fell short, we chat about your experiences of your partner's support, presence, connection or not.Next, we respond to an emotional call for help from a sleep-deprived and emotionally exhausted mother whose husband threatens to call the cops on her for how she handled an overwhelming moment with her toddler. Today's episode includes a special guest appearance from Nancy Wainer, world-renowned midwife and the woman who coined the term VBAC. Nancy answers a listener's question about an anterior placenta in a planned VBAC and explains what her decades of experience tell us about how placentas behave in utero. We also discuss endometrial polyps and whether a biopsy could affect future fertility, how to handle conversations about home birth within a hospital work environment, and how to choose a midwife when you have numerous options and like them all. In Quickies, we cover making baby-wearing more comfortable, the myth that labor “starts” at one centimeter, chiropractic versus pelvic floor PT in pregnancy, relieving newborn gas, timing big changes during teething, postpartum nutrition, and even whether to skip airport scanners while pregnant. We end with each of us pondering which baby names we'd choose today and our favorite ways to spend a slow morning at home.VBAC: How to Plan for Success#257 | Labor & Delivery Nurses' Roundtable: How Their Hands are Tied to Doctors' Orders#273 | Special Q&A Featuring Nancy Wainer on VBAC and More********** Needed

Howard and Antonia explore the evidence behind pit breaks in labor, cannabis use in pregnancy, and IUD options for hormone replacement therapy.• Pit breaks in labor lack substantial evidence of benefit when used in active labor• Current research suggests stopping oxytocin during active labor may slightly increase cesarean rates rather than decrease them• Long pit breaks (up to 8 hours) in latent labor may be beneficial by allowing rest and promoting patience• Recent systematic review shows prenatal cannabis use increases risk of low birth weight by 75%, preterm birth by 50%, and perinatal mortality by 29%• Cannabis use during pregnancy (7.2% of pregnant women) now exceeds tobacco use• Retrospective studies on doula care show association with better outcomes, but can't establish causation due to inherent differences in patients who seek doulas• 52mg levonorgestrel IUDs (Mirena/Liletta) are suitable for endometrial protection during HRT, but evidence only supports use up to 5 years• Most systematic reviews combine heterogeneous studies and shouldn't be considered level 1 evidenceWe'd love to hear your questions!

In this conversation, Dr. Shawn Tassone discusses the complexities of postmenopausal bleeding, emphasizing the importance of understanding hormone health and the potential implications of bleeding in postmenopausal women. He outlines the diagnostic procedures, including ultrasounds and endometrial biopsies, and explains the significance of various results. Dr. Tassone also addresses the management of endometrial polyps and fibroids, the common occurrence of spotting during hormone replacement therapy, and encourages women to seek medical advice when experiencing unusual symptoms. The conversation aims to educate and empower women regarding their hormonal health and the importance of early detection of potential issues. Episode Highlights: Postmenopausal bleeding should always be investigated. Ultrasounds are crucial for assessing endometrial thickness. Endometrial biopsies can be life-saving tests. Spotting can be common when starting hormone therapy. Polyps are usually benign but can cause bleeding. Understanding hormone levels is key to managing symptoms. Cancers develop over time, not suddenly. Women should not fear hormone replacement therapy. Early detection of uterine cancer is possible and important. Consulting with a physician is essential for any unusual symptoms.

Endometrial ablation has become a cornerstone procedure in the treatment of abnormal uterine bleeding, but is it the right solution for every patient that meets the indication? In this episode of the BackTable OBGYN Podcast, Dr. Ted Anderson from Vanderbilt University joins host Dr. Mark Hoffman to discuss the evolution of endometrial ablation and its contemporary utilization, including patient selection, technical considerations, and alternative treatments for abnormal uterine bleeding. --- SYNPOSIS Dr. Anderson begins by detailing the history of abnormal uterine bleeding alongside the evolution of the endometrial ablation techniques that have been used to treat it. Shifting focus to current day practice, he then shares his approach to endometrial ablation, covering patient selection and the technical aspects of his approach. Throughout the conversation, Dr. Anderson emphasizes the importance of how we define success in endometrial ablation, explaining that eumenorrhea (normal bleeding that no longer interferes with life events) is the goal, as opposed to the more traditional view that amenorrhea is the target outcome. The episode closes with a discussion on the role of alternative treatments, such as the Mirena IUD and hysterectomy for abnormal uterine bleeding. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 09:29 - History of Abnormal Uterine Bleeding and Endometrial Ablation 23:31 - Evolution of Endometrial Ablation Devices/Techniques 31:11 - Selecting the Right Patient for Ablation Success 34:38 - Post-Tubal Sterilization Ablation Syndrome 38:27 - The Role of IUDs in Managing AUB 44:07 - Reevaluating Endometrial Ablation Success Metrics 49:55 - Innovative Ablation Techniques: Cryoablation and Steam 51:48 - Adenomyosis and Fertility-Sparing Treatments 57:28 - Final Thoughts

Today on The Egg Whisperer Show podcast, I'm honored to be sharing a conversation all about endometrial analysis. Originally hosted by Tiffany Stankewicz and Nasser Al Asmar of Igenomix / Vitrolife Group, this interview included Dr. Allison Rodgers and Dr. Aimee We did a deep dive on how endometrial analysis works, and the tools that are available for fertility patients to get a better understanding of what may be happening with their endometrial lining. We also talk about how endometrial receptivity testing can lead to better outcomes for patients. The truth is that up to 30% of women have pathogenic bacteria in their endometrial lining that can negatively affect an embryo's ability to implant, and the good news is that there are simple antibiotics that can improve the lining. Dr. Rodgers and I have both had a lot of experience using the tools that Igenomix has created to test the endometrium, and we have both found that they can improve a patient's chance for a successful pregnancy. They call the trio of tests “Endometrio” and it includes EMMA, ALICE, and ERA. These three tests do the following: ERA (Endometrial Receptivity Analysis) - The ERA test evaluates the stage of an endometrium to determine if a receptive or non-receptive genetic profile is present at the time of biopsy. EMMA (Endometrial Microbiome Metagenomic Analysis) - A screening test to evaluate the endometrium at the microbiological level. ALICE (Analysis of Infectious Chronic Endometritis) - ALICE detects the bacteria causing chronic endometritis to improve your patient's reproductive prognosis. Tune in to learn more about endometrial analysis and how these tests, and the science behind them, can give fertility patients more insights about their endometrium, implantation, and chances for pregnancy. Thank you for hosting, Tiffany and Nasser, and thank you for the great discussion, Allison! You can tune in to all of the discussions hosted by Igenomix at ASRM on YouTube.

In today's episode, we discuss the use of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and local oestrogen in all types of gynaecological cancer patients. Many women after ovarian, womb, cervical, vulval or vaginal cancers feel that they are left out of the conversation and research as so much emphasis is on the breast cancer community. So, here we are with a laser focus on menopause after gynae cancers and we hope this episode is helpful. We are joined by Mr. Vikram Talaulikar, an associate specialist at the reproductive medicine unit in University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and hon. associate professor at University College London. He explains that menopause after gynaecological cancer treatment is more challenging because it occurs suddenly and the symptoms are often more severe and persistent. We discuss the data and safety for the use of HRT and local oestrogen for:1) Ovarian cancer2) Endometrial cancer3) Cervical cancer4) Vaginal + Vulval cancerEpisode Highlights:00:00 Intro.13:05 HRT now considered for more cancer patients.14:04 HRT generally safe for most ovarian tumours.19:58 Prefer HRT after 12-24 months post-treatment.22:09 Cervical cancer: treatment options hinge on type.30:24 Post-surgery, vaginal oestrogen often necessary; discussions important.33:32 Research non-hormonal treatments before using vaginal oestrogen.38:39 Ideally see a menopause specialist early after cancer diagnosis.42:34 Sarcomas contraindicate hormone use.44:50 Holistic menopause care includes non-hormonal and local treatments.49:18 Discuss options with GP, oncologist, or nurse specialist.Connect with us:For more information and resources visit our website: www.menopauseandcancer.org Or follow us on Instagram @menopause_and_cancerJoin our Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/menopauseandcancerchathub A big thanks to our trusted sponsor, The Better Menopause.

In this episode, we hear the remarkable story of Wenora Johnson, a three-time cancer survivor who faced the challenges of job loss, single motherhood, and pursuing an education, all while navigating her diagnoses. Wenora shares her experiences with warmth, humor, and wisdom, offering valuable insights for anyone facing adversity. We delve into the cultural taboos surrounding cancer in her community, the critical role genetics played in her health journey, and why involving loved ones in our health decisions is so essential. Wenora's story goes beyond survival; it's about how she turned her experience into a passion for patient advocacy, making a lasting impact in the cancer community. Key Highlights: 1. Given the significant role genetics play as a risk factor for cancer, it is important to keep your family and loved ones informed. 2. Give yourself grace; you don't have to become a patient advocate fighting for systemic change. It's perfectly okay if your focus is simply on getting through today. 3. Having a supportive healthcare team that genuinely wants to see you succeed is crucial—not only for the effort they'll put forth but also for inspiring you to stay healthy and proactive in your treatment.

In this episode of the IJGC podcast, Editor-in-Chief Dr. Pedro Ramirez is joined by Andrea Rosati. Mr. Rosati is a consultant at the Department of Gynecologic Oncology at Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli in Rome (Italy). He is currently attending a second level master "Gynecologic Oncology International Master" at the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart (Rome, Italy) accredited as a Subspecialty Fellowship by the European Society of Gynaecological Oncology. His main interest areas are gynecological cancer, surgical anatomy, and gynecologic oncology surgery. Highlights: This study evaluated the prevalence of concurrent endometrial cancer in patients with pre-operative diagnoses of atypical endometrial hyperplasia undergoing hysterectomy. Among 460 patients, 47.2% were found to have concurrent endometrial cancer. Sentinel lymph node biopsy provided prognostic and therapeutic information in 60.8% of cases. It also allowed for the adjustment of adjuvant therapy in 12.3% of high to intermediate-risk patients without increasing operative time or complication rates. The study suggests sentinel lymph node biopsy can provide valuable prognostic and therapeutic insights in managing atypical endometrial hyperplasia.

In this episode of the IJGC podcast, Editor-in-Chief Dr. Pedro Ramirez is joined by Dr. Ana Luzarraga to discuss molecular profiles as predictors of endometrial recurrence. Dr. Luzarraga is a Gynecologic Oncologist currently working in the Vall d'Hebron University Hospital in Barcelona, Spain. She has completed her two years ESGO fellowship in 2023 and is currently finishing her PhD programme about molecular profile in endometrial cancer. Highlights: Molecular subgroups of endometrial cancer present distinctive recurrence patterns: p53-abn tumors relapse mostly with peritoneal and distant disease and NSMP tumors at distance. Molecular profile is a stronger independent predictor for vaginal, peritoneal, and distant recurrence than classic histologic factors. P53-abn is the sole independent predictor of peritoneal relapse. P53-abn and NSMP are independent predictors of distant recurrence.
