Clinical Trial Summary

This study will focus on speaking to women who have been diagnosed with one of the five main gynaecological cancers: ovarian, endometrial (womb), cervical, vulval and vaginal. Too many women are dying from gynaecological cancer in the UK. There are many reasons for this, but the study investigators think that embarrassment might be one of the reasons. It can be embarrassing to talk about gynaecological cancers or the symptoms that they cause. This might lead some women to delay going to their doctor when they have symptoms. This study will speak with women who have been diagnosed with a gynaecological cancer to ask them what they did before they were diagnosed; when did they realise something was wrong; what made them go to their doctor; did having gynaecological symptoms make them think differently about going to the doctor? This information will be used to find ways of making it as easy as possible for women to go to their doctors as early as possible. This will hopefully see fewer women dying from these cancers.
