The incidence of oncogynecological pathologies, including endometrial cancer (EC), tends to increase, especially among women of reproductive age. Treatment of EC involves radical surgical intervention, as well as combined chemoradiotherapy according to indications, which has a traumatic effect on the physical, psycho-emotional, and social well-being of the patient. A comprehensive personalized rehabilitation program significantly improves the quality of life (QoL). However, the issue of introducing restorative measures into еру clinical practice remains open.
