@naturegirl5 Yes, my daughter will see my surgeon. My surgeon offered to see her when I told her my daughters oncologist still had not told her her results from her biopsy two weeks ago. She read the results herself on her online chart. All three of my daughters have PCOS which makes them more likely to get EC. I do not have PCOS. But we will ask the genetic questions.

@teechur89 It’s encouraging that your oncologist/surgeon offered to see your daughter. While your daughter may have reviewed the biopsy results herself in her chart it’s awful that her oncologist had not gotten back to her. It must be a relief for you and your daughter that your surgeon is so responsive.

Now that your daughters know they carry PCOS do they have periodic surveillance appointments? I ask this because I’m wondering if your daughter had symptoms that brought her to the oncologist or if the endometrial cancer was first caught in a surveillance visit.

Here is information from Mayo Clinic for others in our support group who wish to know more about this syndrome.
