@heidivet Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect and to our Gynecological Cancers support group. You've already received some supportive and helpful replies.

I wanted to jump in and say that you are so correct about the difference among cancers. While we have endometrial cancer in common, the different kinds of cancers, and in particular which cancers are more aggressive than others means that our treatments will vary. Many of us have sought out second or third opinions on treatment options and this has helped us to decide what we want to do.

When I had a recurrence of endometrioid adenocarcinoma in 2021 I received a referral to Integrative Medicine. I'm still a patient at Mayo Clinic in Rochester and I continue to meet every 6-12 months with my Integrative Medicine physician. Her subspeciality is gynecological oncology and then she trained in and started the integrative medicine program at Mayo. She reviews all of my information and makes recommendations on diet, exercise, and lifestyle. I have added and dropped supplements at her recommendations, and made efforts to change my diet.

I am tagging @denisestlouie who made and continues to work at the recommendations she received for diet and lifestyle changes.

Have you made changes to your diet or lifestyle or sought out recommendations for yourself?
