GPs Rebecca and Sarah are joined by Professor Emma Davidson to discuss the latest on endometrial cancer in primary care. The conversation covers non-invasive diagnostic innovations, the realities of hysteroscopy, and when to refer for unscheduled bleeding on HRT. They delve into key risk and protective factors, including obesity, family history, and the impact of hormone therapy and GLP-1 medications. The team also highlights the role of patient education, the challenge of differentiating bleeding sources, and emerging clinical guidance, such as recognising Lynch syndrome and the relevance of the LEGOC acronym.
