Often misdiagnosed or ignored, symptoms like bloating and fatigue can be fatal if missed. Obesity and type 2 diabetes are key drivers, fueling estrogen and insulin resistance linked to endometrial cancer. Experts say 60% of cases might be preventable with awareness and risk management. The tragic story of Simone Crerar, who died from aggressive uterine cancer after multiple misdiagnoses, underscores the urgency. New research hints genetics may play a major role—even in lean women—with specific profiles facing up to five times higher risk if obese. Advocates are pushing for more funding and awareness, urging women to speak up and demand care before it’s too late. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
