Summary

This study tests if a menstrual cup can collect enough uterine tissue to screen for endometrial cancer in women with Lynch syndrome, who have a higher risk. Participants will use a menstrual cup at home and also get a standard biopsy, then compare results. If it works, it could offer a painless, convenient way to catch cancer early.
