Abstract:
Fatigue is common in women with gynecologic cancers and is thought to be multifactorial. Anemia, cachexia, pain, and depression are frequently associated with cancer and treatment-related fatigue and should be evaluated and treated. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network Fatigue Practice Guidelines are helpful in the assessment and treatment of women with gynecologic cancer-related fatigue.
