About gynaecological cancer
There are many types of gynaecological cancer, often called women's cancers. The most common gynaecological cancers are:
- endometrial (womb lining) cancer
- ovarian cancer
- cervical (neck of the womb) cancer.
Rarer types include cancer of the vulva, vagina and fallopian tube.
