Introduction: The National Institute of Agrarian Reform (INCA) estimated a risk of 20.48 new cases of cervical cancer per 100,000 women in northern Brazil by 2023. In the state of Pará, the estimated 2023 number of new cases of cervical cancer and 80 new cases of uterine and endometrial cancers is approximately 830. This study aims to analyze the clinical and epidemiological profile of women with uterine cancer living in the western region of Pará. Methodology: This is a cross-sectional, quantitative, and descriptive epidemiological study. The absolute and relative frequencies of recorded clinical outcomes were analyzed, contingency tables were constructed, and association tests were applied using Pearson's chi-square test. Results/Discussion: Most women are from Santarém, are mixed race, married, and have a primary education, and the most prevalent diagnosis was cervical cancer. At diagnosis, most were classified as stage III, and the most commonly used treatment was radiotherapy. The delay in starting treatment is more related to the diagnosis of cervical cancer and in women from cities further away from Santarém. Conclusion: This study concludes that there is a longer delay in starting oncological treatment for uterine cancer in women who live far from Santarém. Furthermore, most women are admitted to the health service with locally advanced disease, which can further delay the time to treatment initiation.
