A study published in the Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology Research looked at 24 studies on coffee intake with 9,833 new cases of endometrial cancer (uterine cancer) occurring in 699,234 people. In this study, it was discovered that there may be an inverse relationship between high coffee consumption and cancer risk.
Accordingly, it has been suggested that consuming coffee reduces the risk of endometrial cancer, a type of cancer that starts in the lining of the uterus and is also known as uterine cancer. As a result of the analysis, it was stated that in addition to coffee consumption reducing the risk of endometrial cancer, caffeinated coffee may provide better protection than decaffeinated coffee.
Those who drink a lot of coffee have a 29 percent lower risk of developing endometrial cancer than those who do not drink coffee.
The structure that covers the inner surface of the uterus, which is prepared for a potential pregnancy every month by shedding a layer during each menstrual period, and to which the placenta attaches in case of pregnancy is called the ‘endometrium’. Cancers that develop in this structure are called endometrial cancer or, in other words, endometrial cancer. Vaginal bleeding after menopause, bleeding between two menstrual periods, abnormal or bloody discharge in the vagina, pelvic pain and pain/pain during sexual intercourse are some of the main symptoms of endometrial cancer.
In the light of the researches, it was concluded that the risk of developing endometrial cancer in the highest category of coffee consumption was 29 percent lower than those in the lowest coffee consumption category.
Noting several mechanisms associated with coffee’s potential anti-cancer effects, the authors of the study stated, “More studies with large sample sizes are needed to obtain more information on the benefits of drinking coffee with regard to endometrial cancer risk.”
