In developed nations, endometrial cancer is the most prevalent cancer that affects women. Endometrial cancer was the third most frequent gynaecological malignancy at BIACH & RI, with 636 cases (11.5%) overall throughout the study period. The Middle and high-income groups had the highest incidence i.e. 70.28%. The majority of cases, 233 (36.63%), occurred in the age group 51–60 years, followed by 204 (32.07%) in the 61–70 age group. The mean age at endometrial malignancy diagnosis was 58.19±10.86. A stage I diagnosis was made in 35.4% of endometrial cancer cases, a stage IV diagnosis in 35.1%, a stage III diagnosis in 17.7%, and a stage II diagnosis in 11.84%. The prevalence of diabetes, hypertension, and hypothyroidism was around 23%, 39%, and 11%, respectively, in patients with endometrial cancer. Menopause was experienced by 56.4% of women between the ages of 41 and 50 and 30.33% of women between the ages of 51 and 60. Postmenopausal bleeding was found to be the main symptom in 346 instances.
