FIGO System 1 for uterine bleeding. The system for definition and nomenclature of normal and abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) in the reproductive years. In 2011, FIGO recognized two systems designed to aid research, education, and clinical care of women with abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) in the reproductive years.
Type 1 endometrial cancer is the most common endometrial cancer. [15] As many as 90% of patients diagnosed with Type 1 endometrial cancer are obese. [16] Although a correlation between obesity and ovarian cancer is possible, the association is predominantly found in low-grade subtypes of the cancer. [17]
