Fertility preservation in young women with endometrial cancer

Objectives: Standard treatment of endometrial cancer and atypical hyperplasia with hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy in young women results in premature menopause and infertility. High dose progestogen has been used to treat and preserve fertility. Our objective was to investigate if low dose progestogen in combination with tumour resection and intrauterine progestogen is an alternative.
