Abstract

Purpose: Over 65,000 women were diagnosed with endometrial cancer (EC) in 2020. Standard treatment is TAH/BSO with radiation therapy (RT) and chemotherapy given based on risk factors. These can cause significant changes in the vagina, including shortening, narrowing, loss of elasticity, atrophy, and dryness. These complications are not life threatening, but can affect a woman's physical, psychological, and social functioning. Adjuvant vaginal dilator use is often advised, but there are currently inconsistent recommendations on use and no prospective data to support its efficacy.
