Gynecologic Oncology
Reclaim your life.
Gynecologic oncology is a group of cancers that affect the female reproductive system. Several types of gynecologic cancers exist, including cervical, ovarian and uterine. Uterine cancer accounts for more gynecologic cancer deaths than all other gynecologic cancers combined.
