Woman's Doc: Endometrial Cancer & Obesity

There have been a whole slew of articles in the last week or so on the connection between endometrial cancer and obesity----this report from WBAL in Baltimore is short and to the point. One concern, however, is that the author of the article is suggesting progestin as a way to thin the uterine lining, progestin is a synthetic hormone----not the same as progesterone. As always, if this is a concern to you, talk to your doctor.
