Complications of gynecological cancers include metastasis (spreading) to other organs, including the pelvic and abdominal lymph nodes, the abdominal cavity (causing fluid buildup), the lungs and sac surrounding the lungs (pleura), bones, liver, and brain. Pain may be present, especially in the pelvic region and lower gastrointestinal system.

Women with certain gynecological cancers (such as endometrial cancer) may lose enough blood from vaginal bleeding to cause anemia - a condition in which the blood is low in red blood cells. Anemia causes fatigue and shortness of breath.
