There are many risk factors that can indicate the possiblility of uterine cancer. These risk factors include: not having children, being overweight, early menarche or late menopause (exposure to alot of estrogen), bladder infections, painful sexual intercourse or pelvic exams, and/or irregular vaginal bleeding or spotting. These risk factors can point to the possiblity that one has uterine cancer. However, if polyps are present in the uterus, this is a definite indication that one does have uterine cancer.
