 I didn't think it was anything. I had pain in my abdomen. It just wouldn't go away. I was spotting, but I had already gone through menopause. These symptoms may be nothing, but they could be early warning signs of a gynecologic cancer, such as cervical, ovarian, or uterine cancer. Seeing my doctor probably saved my life. Warning signs are not the same for everyone. If you think something's wrong, see your doctor. Ask about gynecologic cancer. Call 1-800-CDC-INFO for more information.
