I have been recently diagnosed with endometrial cancer stage 1 grade 1. It was a complete shock obviously, but not just for me, even the doctor was surprised given my young age.
As I do not have kids yet and wish to preserve the fertility, the doctor is taking preservative approach. I was started on Provera 400mg in December but since last week I started bleeding again. So doctor increased the dose to 600mg. They will also be inserting mirena coil in February.
Please can I get some guidance as to what I can do from my end. Also, is some what bleeding normal even while taking Provera?
So many questions pops up in head all the time and anxiety is very real. I know it is good it has been diagnosed at such an early stage but still the doctor said that the chances of medicines to work is 50%.
Any guidance is very much appreciated. Thank you 
Hello Letap
Welcome to the Womb group.
I am sorry to hear of you diagnosis of endometrial cancer and understand you wanting to preserve your fertility.
For a grade 1 and stage 1a cancer provera and the mirena coil can sometimes be used. Then the cancer is normally monitored regularly.
Bleeding can be a symptom of the cancer but it can also be a side effect of hormonal treatment. It sounds like the doctor has increased the dose to try to stop the bleeding?
