If you do not get treatment for uterine cancer and the uterine cancer goes untreated then the uterine cancer will continue to spread.

When the uterine cancer spreads it can spread to your bladder or rectum, or it can spread to your vagina, fallopian tubes, ovaries, and even more distant organs.

Eventually the uterine cancer can spread enough to where it can be deadly and kill you.

If you get uterine cancer and you do not treat the uterine cancer then you can expect to live up to 3 to 5 years after the diagnoses.

Uterine Cancer is a pretty slow growing cancer and spreads slowly so it can take awhile for death to occur.

If you get treated for uterine cancer soon enough then you have a good chance of survival and can usually live a good long normal lifespan.

Leave the uterine cancer untreated then you can expect to die at least 5 years or 6 years after diagnoses.
