I'm reading on here most had 3 brach. therapies, I only had 2 brach, 28 external radiations for/stage 3 endometrial cancer w/POLE mutation. I asked why I hear most have 3 brach treatments it seems and I only had 2. Doctor said was cause I did more external which is harder he stated. ...any thoughts

I had two Brachy treatments. Mine were high dose AND I did not have EBRT or any other type of treatment. I think (and I'm not an expert) that most dosages are around 5-7 Gray (Gy) each; each of mine was more than double. Maybe you had high dose?

I also had only 2 Brachy treatments after my full round of external radiation. I never asked why not 3, but I remember being relieved about it.
