OBJECTIVE: We examined the relationship between body mass index (BMI) at referral and subsequent diagnosis of endometrial cancer in a cohort of Chinese women presenting with postmenopausal bleeding, to determine whether BMI of 25 kg/m2 would serve to delineate women at increased risk of endometrial cancer.
METHODS: This cohort included 4,164 Chinese women referred for postmenopausal bleeding from 2002 to 2013. For all women, a medical history was taken, and physical examination, BMI measurement, transvaginal pelvic ultrasonography, and endometrial sampling were performed. Additional investigations were performed as indicated clinically. The presence of risk factors for endometrial cancer and histological diagnoses were compared among groups defined by the standard Asian BMI cut-off values.
RESULTS: Within the cohort, 868 (20.8%) were overweight (BMI 23-24.9 kg/m2) and 1,611 (38.7%) were obese (BMI ≥25 kg/m2), and 162 (3.9%) had endometrial cancer. The prevalence of endometrial cancer correlated with BMI category (P < 0.001). On multivariate analysis, BMI ≥25 kg/m2 was independently associated with 1.57 times risk of endometrial cancer (95% CI 1.13-2.20, P = 0.008) compared with BMI less than 25 kg/m2.
CONCLUSION: When managing postmenopausal bleeding in Chinese women, the Asian BMI standard for obesity at 25 kg/m2 identified 51% of endometrial cancers in this group and denoted a 57% increased risk of endometrial cancer. Thus obesity could be used to triage women presenting with postmenopausal bleeding for prioritized investigations.
