@hope52 I would like to add my welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect and to our Gynecological Cancers Support Group. I see that @colleenyoung tagged a few of our members who were also diagnosed with clear cell carcinoma and they will join in. We share our own experiences with gynecological cancer and support one another here.
I did not have chemotherapy when I was diagnosed with endometrioid adenocarcinoma but I did have radiation therapy including two treatments of brachytherapy. What questions do you plan to ask your oncologist? How can we help you with your questions?

@naturegirl5 Thank you so much for replying to my post. I have a lot of questions for my oncologist, a few are mainly best treatment for endometrial clear cell. Vaginal brachttherapy vs chemo? She said treatment is up in the air since stage 1A did not have to do anything but observation. I do not feel comfortable doing that. CT did not show it had spread, which is a blessing. If they did DNA testing, any myometrial involvement. Side effects if do brachytherapy-bladder and bowel, side effects to chemo-I still work part time and live alone, so need to take care of myself and work. Mainly want to know best treatment for me.
Thank you for any information you or anyone can give me.
