Hi, In approximately the 3rd month of pregnancy, I was prescribed DES. My daughter is now 35 and has 4 sons, had 6 mscarriages and has a bicornate uterus. What tests should she have to screen for possibility of cancer.
Thank you.
Thank you.

By age 35, the risk of DES associated cancers is no different than the general population.
She needs pap smears by the usually screening guidelines
